Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and set it aside.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. In a separate small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.

  4. In another bowl, beat the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract together until well combined.

  5. Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture and stir until a soft dough forms.

  6. Press the dough into the bottom of the greased baking pan, making sure to spread it out evenly and press it slightly up the sides.

  7. Pour the egg mixture over the dough, spreading it to the edges to create a smooth surface.

  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the cake is set.

  9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan before slicing into squares. Serve warm and enjoy the buttery goodness!
