Once the butter is melted, remove it from heat. Add the dry mixture to the melted butter and stir until well combined.
4
Add Milk and Vanilla
Gradually add the milk and vanilla extract to the mixture, stirring continuously until smooth.

5
Heat the Mixture
Place the saucepan back on low heat and continue to stir the mixture until it thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
