Notes
- Almond extract! Everyone says that it gives treats that cake batter flavor. I’m not entirely sure I taste it, but I totally could be wrong. Either way I think it gives a delicious taste, but even the tiny amount used here is strong. So if you’re not super into that almond flavor I would just leave it out.
