Zubereitung von Aunt Emily's Tea Cakes

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Stir in the milk until the batter is smooth.
Drop rounded tablespoons of batter onto ungreased baking sheets. (Traditionally, a small coffee pot lid is used to flatten the batter, but a small glass or cookie cutter can be substituted.)
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Let the tea cakes cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your delicious Aunt Emily's Tea Cakes! They are best enjoyed warm but equally delightful at room temperature.
