— In a small bowl, crack and beat the eggs. Set aside.

— In a large bowl, combine butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Beat on medium speed or mix until light.

— Gradually add the eggs, alternately with the flour mixture. Cream and mix well after each addition.

— Transfer the mixture in a piping bag with a plain tip or use an ice cream scooper.

— Fill the mold to about three-fourths full. Top with the streusel topping, about 1 tablespoon each.
