Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (don’t rush this — room temp butter is half the magic)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract — the real stuff if you can swing it
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons milk — whole milk’s best if you have it
