• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/3 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1-1/4 cups all purpose flour

Preheat oven to 325°F. Combine butter, brown sugar and vanilla in a mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add flour, 1/4 cup at a time, until dough becomes too stiff to beat. Knead by hand until all the flour is incorporated. Press dough into the bottom of an 8 inch cake pan. Pierce dough all over with a fork.

Bake 40-45 minutes or until golden. Cool slightly before cutting.
