I'm in the middle of creaming sugars and it calls for eggs??? Vanilla is mentioned but no amount. Not a usual problem with Food 52?

No listing of number of eggs or amount of vanilla yet it mentions to add these ingredients to the recipe. Please complete/update the ingredient list. Lynn Wainess

Hello! The photo looks so enticing I decided to try them..... they're baking now and look fantastic! Just a note about the recipe. The ingredients list looks a bit incomplete as the recipe calls for eggs and vanilla, but the ingredient list does not include those ingredients. I guessed at 3-4 eggs based on the texture of the batter and 1 teaspoon on the vanilla. Also, I guessed at the muffin tin size, regular.... looks to be correct as I have 12 in the oven now and enough batter for 6 more, I think! Thank you!!! Can't wait to try them, they smell fantastic!
