- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, and stir in the vanilla.
- In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

Notes
Use room temperature eggs and butter for a smooth mix. Do not over mix the batter; mix just until you see no dry flour. Use quality caramel sauce for best taste.
