Beat eggs until thick and lemon colored (about 5 minutes with electric mixer at medium speed). Gradually add the sugar, a few spoonfuls at a time. Beat another 3 minutes. Slowly add flour, baking powder and salt. Beat in milk in 3 equal portions until blended. Add flavoring. Beat 2 minutes. Pour into a greased and floured 15 x 12 x 1 1/2-inch jelly roll pan. Bake in center of preheated 350° oven for 38 to 42 minutes (or until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean). Cool 1 hour on rack. Cut cake into finger-like strips to resemble Twinkie cakes. Spread half of the fingers with filling and top these with remaining fingers to form sandwiches. Wrap and refrigerate or freeze. They keep up to 3 weeks refrigerated, indefinitely if frozen with proper wrapping.
