When my pal Venie visited from Canada I discovered she didn't know what a whoopie pie was( oh the horror!). I remedied that situation right quick.When I saw this recipe this morning it got me to wondering how many other people have never had/heard of a whoopie pie.I will be trying this recipe.When I was a kid there was only one type if whoopie pie( chocolate with white filling). Sharing in case anyone wants to make me,I mean make some.....
PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP WHOOPIE PIES( recipe from Downeast magazine)
2 egg yolks
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup oil
1 teaspoon cloves
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups pumpkin
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups flour
1 cup (approx.) milk chocolate chips
Mix well. Use a large spoon to drop on cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 8–10 minutes (maybe longer depending on the size you make them — test them to make sure they are baked through).
Filling:
This is the BEST filling – if you don’t make the pumpkin whoopies, I suggest you use this filling for all your whoopie recipes!
3/4 cup butter
1 1/3 cups confectioners sugar
1/2 tub FLUFF (marshmallow)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Mix well. An electric mixer works best.
Fill whoopies once they have completely cooled. ENJOY!
