Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare a 9×13-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly.
- In a large bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla extract.

- Check for doneness early to prevent overbaking.
- Use room temperature butter and eggs for a smoother batter.
