Instructions to make Salted Carmel Butter Bars:

Microwave on high for 1 minute. Remove from the microwave and stir until smooth. If caramels are not completely melted, microwave on high for 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth.
  6. Once the caramel is melted add in your 1/2 tsp vanilla and stir until combined.
