Tips:

  • Use room temperature butter and eggs. This will help the ingredients mix together more smoothly and evenly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the squares tough.
  • Be careful not to brown the butter too much. If the butter is too brown, it will give the squares a bitter taste.
  • Line the baking pan with parchment paper. This will make it easier to remove the squares from the pan and also prevent them from sticking.
  • Allow the squares to cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape better.
  • Store the squares in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 3 days.
