1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish.

In another bowl, combine the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk. Mix until smooth.

4. Combine Mixtures

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

5. Bake the Base

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
