Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started! The first thing I like to do is preheat my oven to 350°F (175°C). While that’s warming up, I grab a medium saucepan and melt the butter over low heat. Once it’s melted, I take it off the heat and stir in the sugar until it’s well combined. Next, I add in the eggs, one at a time, and whisk in the vanilla extract. The mixture should have a smooth and glossy texture. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
