Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started! First, in a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until it’s light and fluffy. I love the moment when the sugars and butter meld together; it makes my kitchen smell heavenly! Once it’s fluffy, add in the vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Next, gradually sift the flour and salt into the mixture and blend until it just comes together. It might seem a little dry, but once you add the sweetened condensed milk, everything will come together beautifully. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
