  4. In a large bowl, sift together the muffin mix, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cooled melted butter until smooth.
  6. Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined.

  10. Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
