🧂 Ingredients:

• 2 cups of all-purpose flour
• 1 cup of sugar
• 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup of whole milk
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon of baking powder
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• Optional: 1 cup of your favorite nuts or chocolate chips

👩‍🍳 Directions:

1️⃣ Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a 9×13 inch baking dish.

2️⃣ Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.

3️⃣ Add Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, softened butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually add this mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

4️⃣ Incorporate Add-Ins: If you’re using nuts or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter at this point.

5️⃣ Pour Batter into Pan: Pour the prepared batter into the greased baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.

6️⃣ Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

7️⃣ Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm for a delightful experience!

💡 Tips & Variations:

• For a lighter version, swap half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
• Want to add a touch of zest? A tablespoon of lemon or orange zest dramatically enhances the flavor.
• Experiment with different mix-ins, such as dried fruits or flavored extracts like almond or coconut!
