36 caramels
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup butter, cubed

3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1-1/3 cups chopped pecans, toasted

In a small heavy saucepan, combine the caramels, water and butter. Cook and stir over low heat until caramels are melted. Remove from the heat and set aside.
