Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with butter or line it with parchment paper. This ensures easy removal and perfect edges.

Step 2: Cream the Butter and Sugar

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy. This process incorporates air, which makes the dessert soft and tender.
