Whoopie Pie
A classic dessert from New England, whoopie pies consist of two soft cookies sandwiched together with a creamy filling.
Ingredients
- Powdered sugar (1/2 cup)
- Marshmallow fluff (1 cup)
- Buttermilk (1 cup)
- Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)
- Egg (1 large)
- Granulated sugar (1 cup)
- Butter (1/2 cup, softened)
- Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
- Baking soda (1 teaspoon)
- Cocoa powder (1/2 cup)
- All (purpose flour - 2 cups)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cookies spring back when lightly touched. Allow to cool completely.
