Bring mix to a boil (about 20 min), than adjust heat to low and simmer slowly for 40 min, stirring frequently, till quite thick. Remove from the heat. Add in the vanilla extract and stir to combine. Add in the minced walnuts and stir with a rubber spatula to combine. Pour the mix onto the aluminum foil- lined baking sheet, using a rubber spatula to spread the mix to the edges. Allow the mix to stand at room temperature for 15 min, then chill for 2 hrs before cutting.
- Turn caramel out onto a cutting board. Use a serrated slicer to make 9 cuts across the width of the sheet of caramel at 1 1/2 inch intervals. Then make 4 cuts across the length of the sheet at 2 inch intervals. Individually wrap each caramel in plastic wrap or possibly aluminum foil, and store in the refrigerator till ready to devour.
