Notes

* If you don’t have or do not want to use cake batter extract, you can instead use 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract + 1/4 teaspoon almond extract, OR 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (it just won’t lend to that cake batter taste!)

Store cookie sandwiches in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week
