Making Whoopie ... Pie

So whoopie pie has apparently become a trend and our newspaper food section did some articles on them a while back and I thought they sounded and looked tasty. Well today I decided to make them to take to a family bbq. I used the recipe found here.

Ingredients...
Mix according to the recipe until the batter is fluffy and smooth...
I used a scooper to portion out little balls of batter onto parchment paper lined baking pans...
While the cake portion was baking I gathered the ingredients for the filling ...
Once the cakes were baked, I let them cool...
I paired up the cakes by size and piped on the filling...
Then put the top on and press down gently...
And repeat until all are filled, then step back and admire...
And taste ... om nom nom ... Cakey marshmallow-y goodness, in a handy little snack that you can pick up and eat. Perfect for a picnic, a backyard bbq or to pack in your lunchbox for tomorrow. Although I can't guarantee that it will still be there at lunchtime. *Sneaks back to the fridge for another one*

  2. Ooooo... looks like a homemade Joe Louis, without the chocolate coating! Actually, it looks BETTER...

  3. Apparently whoopie pies originated in Amish country, although they don't use the marshmallow creme in their filling.

    Gillian I had to google those, but they do look similar. I might try making these and coating them in chocolate one time.
