In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, and sugar until light and fluffy.  Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing until fully incorporated, stir in the vanilla.  Combine the flour, baking powder and salt, stir into the batter alternately with the milk.  If the batter is too thick, a tablespoon or 2 of milk may be address.  Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
