VANILLA EXTRACT DRINKS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400° F. Lightly coat an 8-inch cake pan with butter and dust with flour. Sift together cake flour, baking powder, and salt into a large mixing bowl.
• Beat butter into the flour mixture, one heaping 1/4 teaspoonful at a time, using an electric mixer on low speed, until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Beat in  sugar, a tablespoon at a time, until the mixture resembles fine damp sand. Beat in eggs one at a time. Increase mixer speed to medium-high and beat  vanilla and milk just until blended. (Do not over beat.)
• Transfer to the prepared pan and bake until a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool cake in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Then transfer to the rack to cool completely.
•  Ice with Browned-Butter Glaze.

Steps:

• In medium saucepan over medium high heat, bring water and sugar to a boil.
• Cook until mixture thickens slightly, about three minutes.
• Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and let cool to room temperature.
• Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
