Salt: 1/4 tsp
Vanilla extract: 1/2 tsp
Cinnamon powder: 1/4 tsp (or less) (optional)
Cardamom powder: 1/4 tsp (or less) (optional)

Preparation Method:

• Pre heat oven to 400F.
• In a bowl mix flour, salt and baking powder.
• In an electric mixer beat butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, milk, cardamom and cinnamon powder on medium until blended.
• Add it to the flour mixture and beat thoroughly.
• Coat the baking tray with butter and flour.
• Pour the batter in baking tray and bake for 30-35 mins or until done.
