Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cream together butter and powdered sugar until fluffy. Gradually mix in flour and vanilla extract.
Press the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Bake for 20 minutes until golden.
For the caramel layer, melt butter, salt, corn syrup, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in half of the cream and let boil for 5 minutes without stirring. Remove from heat and add remaining cream and vanilla.
