Easy Whoopie Pies

 

Whoopie Pies are fun and easy to make.  You can start with your favorite cake recipe or box mix.  Just reduce the liquid by 1/2.  For example, if your cake mix/recipe calls for 1 cup of water/milk - reduce this to 1/2 cup.  Below are pictures showing the step by step directions to creating whoopie pies. I used Trader Joes Pumpkin Muffin mix, reduced the water to 1/2 cup, sprinkled with chocolate chips and sandwiched with cream cheese icing.

Start with a pastry Bag

Put pastry bag into a tall glass

Drape bag over side of the glass

Pour your batter into the pastry bag

Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper and cut hole in bottom of pastry bag. Squeeze batter onto cookie sheet.

Optional - sprinkle with chocolate chip if desired

Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until done

Sandwich two cookies together with filling of your choice, such as cream cheese icing.

Finished - Pumpkin Whoopie Pie with cream cheese frosting
