Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures a perfect baking environment for your treats to rise and become golden brown.

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir gently until well mixed, ensuring all the dry ingredients are ready for the batter.

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for achieving that dreamy texture in your Christmas party treats.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix until incorporated—this adds richness and a warm flavor to your treats.

Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture and pour in the milk, alternating between the two. Stir gently after each addition until just combined, creating a smooth batter.

Grease your baking pan with butter or non-stick spray. Pour the delightful batter into the pan, smoothing out the surface for even baking.

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Watch for a light golden color on top!

Once baked, let your treats cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Enjoy these festive delights warm or at room temperature!
