Do you want to know the secret for yummy baked goods?Homemade vanilla extract. It's easy to make and so worth the wait. 

Cut two vanilla beans into thirds and place them in an airtight bottle or jar. We love these sealed, vintage-looking bottles that are perfect for this project (and available here at BGC.)

Fill the bottle with vodka, seal, and place in a cool, dry place for at least 4 months. Enjoy!
