Step-by-Step Instructions
First, I start by preheating my oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing my baking pan. You can also line it with parchment paper for easy removal later, but I’ve done it both ways and love the results either way. In a large mixing bowl, I melt the butter and then whisk in the sugar until it’s combined nicely—just imagine that sweet, buttery aroma filling your kitchen! Next, I incorporate the eggs one at a time, adding in the vanilla extract to enhance the flavors. Things are really starting to come together! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
