Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a mini cake tin with parchment paper.
- Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
