Instructions

Notes
- Try different sugar types like coconut or raw sugar for unique flavor profiles.
- For gluten-free version, swap all-purpose flour with almond or gluten-free blend to accommodate dietary restrictions.
- Ensure butter is slightly cooled after melting to prevent scrambling eggs during mixing.
- Add chopped nuts or chocolate chips into batter for extra texture and flavor complexity.
