    Heat the butter and milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat until the butter melts. Stir in the vanilla.

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool slightly in the pan, about 10 minutes. Heat the broiler.
