Directions

Preheat the oven to 350℉ (180℃).

Coat a 13 by 9-inch cake pan with cooking spray or grease with butter, then line with parchment paper.

Coat the parchment paper with cooking spray or grease with butter and set aside.

In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar.
