Time 2h45m

Yield 12 servings

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking pan
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) salted butter, melted
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup milk

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and butter. Whisk in the vanilla and eggs. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the flour, baking powder and salt. Lastly, fold in the sprinkles.
