How to Make Margarida's Broiler Cake

  1. Preheat your broiler to high heat.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into a greased and floured 8x8 inch baking pan.
  7. Place the pan on the top rack of your broiler and broil for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  8. Remove from the broiler and let cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
