DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and grease a donut pan.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar using a hand mixer

- Slowly mix in the milk and vanilla extract.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt.

- Transfer the donut batter into a ziplock or piping bag. Pipe the donut batter into the tray, fill each donut mold, 3/4 of the way full with batter.
