Mix eggs with fork (or whisk) until the mixture is a uniform yellow color.
Note: you will see white chunks of cottage cheese but the egg whites and egg yolk need to be fully incorporated.

Heat Pan

Once the butter is melted, mix the eggs one more time in case anything has separated.
Pour eggs into pan.
Use your rubber spatula to get all of the egg mixture into the pan.

Cook Eggs

As the eggs are cooking scrap from the side of the pan to the center.  Repeat all around the pan.

Continue Cooking

If you see any large piece of eggs that are still very wet and undercooked use the spatula to flip them over.
Continue stirring and flipping over pieces which are runny or very wet looking.

Check for Doneness

You want to make sure that none of the eggs are still runny or very wet looking. 
You do not want to cook the eggs so long that they are dry, the eggs should still glisten and look damp but not wet.

Yummy Eggs

Your eggs are ready to be enjoyed!

I only used three eggs so the total cooking time was less than 3 minutes.  This recipe can easily be scaled up or down, depending on how many eggs you want in your scrabled eggs.
