Whoopie Pies!

IMG_2504

I just tried out a book that’s all about Whoopie Pies. One of the writers of the book (Amy) is also the editor of my book, Cake Pops. Amy sent me a copy to check out and I couldn’t be more excited for her.

I made and fell in love with these sugar-filled sandwiches. They are delish! They’re like little cakes shaped like cookies… (but pie-like… not so much.)

It’s funny… when I gave these treats away, everyone loved them, but no one knew what to call them. Everyone asked “What are they?” It made me wonder how common they are in other places. Have you made whoopie pies? Heard of them? Seen one out in the wild?

No worries if you haven’t. Now you can make your very own. The book is organized for easy reading.

IMG_2515

There’s a section devoted to cakes…

IMG_2516

And a section devoted to fillings. Great for mixing and matching and making whoopies.

IMG_2499

Lots and lots of whoopie.

IMG_2514

Yum!

IMG_2330

I decided to make the classic chocolate whoopie (big surprise) and paired it with peanut butter filling. The recipe called for dark brown sugar. I used this dark muscovado sugar instead because that’s all I had on hand. It made them extra tasty.

After you mix up the batter, drop it by spoonfuls on a parchment covered baking sheet.

IMG_2351

After they bake and cool for a few minutes carefully remove them from the parchment paper.

IMG_2355

Place them flat side up on a cookie rack. Then you can spoon the filling on…

IMG_2377

Or pipe it on.

IMG_2392

I like piping it on. It’s much more fun.

IMG_2403

And prettier to look at.

Sandwich the filling between two of the cakes.

And press gently. That’s it.

Whoo-hooo for whoopies. Now go make some.

Chocolate Whoopie Pies

Chocolate Whoopie Pies

Ingredients

Chocolate Whoopie Pies

  • 1-2/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable shortening
  • 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup milk

Salty Peanut Butter Filling

  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter (or crunchy)
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Whoopie Pies: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, sift together, flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat butter, shortening and sugar with a mixer on low until just combined. Increase speed to medium and beat for about 3 minutes.
  4. Add egg and vanilla and beat for two more minutes.
  5. Add half of the flour mixture and half of the milk and beat on low until incorporated. Repeat with remaining flour and milk and beat until combined.
  6. Using a tablespoon, drop batter on baking sheet two inches apart. Bake for about 10 minutes each or until pies spring back when pressed gently.
  7. Remove from oven and cool for about five minutes before transferring them to a rack to cool completely.
  8. Peanut Butter Filling: Beat peanut butter and butter on low until creamy using a mixer. Add sugar and salt and beat on low to incorporate. Increase speed to medium and beat for about four minutes until the filling is light and fluffy. Spread filling on flat side on one cooled cake. Top it with a second cake and press gently.
  9. Store whoopie pies in an airtight container.

Notes

1 Tbsp of batter should make about 48 two-inch cakes or 24 pies.
2 Tbsp of batter should make about 30 four-inch cakes or 15 pies.

You can also roll the edges in sprinkles, chopped chocolate, nuts, etc. or in this case, peanut butter morsels.

Ummm… can I say these are just about the most fun things to eat. They’re so good you kinda feel like you’re being bad when you sink your teeth into them.

  4. I bought a whoopie pie in Amish Country….that’s about all…I’ve never made any…the idea of eating a pb/chocoate variety is quite enticing :)

  13. I think I’ve heard of them…but I’ve definitely heard of the song, which I’ll be humming all day :-D

  14. In Western Pennsylvania they are called “gobs”. They are a favorite snack of mine to pick up when I go back home. Usually the original chocolate, banana, chocolate chip and pumpkin are available. They are sooooo good!

  15. Have I heard of them? Of course, I live in Maine! You can find them at every corner store here. Even the cafeteria at the hospital where I work sells them. I’ve made them for gifts several times but have only made basic ones (chocolate with white filling). I’d love to branch out and try to make some other flavors. I love ones with a peanut butter filling.

  16. I’d actually never heard of them until this latest craze. Apparently they’re the new cupcake?

  17. Heard of them, and eaten one…struck me as a more transportable cupcake. Looks like a fun book!

  20. I’ve not heard of them but will surely be making some. A copy of the book would really help! :)

  21. First of all, these look fabulous!! thanks for the ideas!!
    And yes, I’ve made something similar to a whoopie before. They were offically called Tiramisu Cookies, but they were essentially 2 Tiramisu flavoured cookies (complete with espresso and kaluha,) with a marscapone filling sandwhiched between the two cookies! They were DELICIOUS!!

  22. My husband grew up with Whoopie pies in Maine, so when we got married (32yrs ago) I learned to bake them. I have always made the classic pies, I need to step out of my box and make other variaties!

  23. The book looks so fun! I’ve heard of whoopie pies but that’s it! I’ve never actually seen one or had the chance to try one!

  35. Actually have never heard of them, but they do look soo good :-)

  36. As Brits we grew up in Brazil with amazing American friends – they introduced us to Whoopies in the 70’s & I’ve been making them ever since!!

    Personally I like them simple – chocolate whoopies with whippy filling – simple! Don’t mess with the best!

    Gorge! x

  37. My mother in law used to make whoopie pies years ago, I know she shared her recipe with me when I was a newly wed and I made them a couple of times way back, but have since lost her recipe. I look forward to making these for my grandchildren!

  38. I’ve made whoopie pies myself. They are delicious! I don’t know a lot about them, but would love to learn more! My favorite is regular chocolate with cream cheese filling made by a bakery in my town.

  39. Ahh one of the few things i miss from my short time living in New Hampshire… they had maple ones that were amazing, ok lets be honest i’ve never eaten a bad one! Never made one though….special ordered a case once

  40. This book looks award-winning! Not to mention probably some of the best recipes known to man! Wow! The winner of this “golden ticket” is truly lucky! :)

  41. i’ve never heard of them, but they look delicious! Because I live in Portugal, I don’t think I can buy them here, so I’ll have to make them to try!

  42. They are being hailed the new cupcake over here in the UK. Have seen them discussed in magazine articles but had not seen any cookbooks dedicated to them, yet! They look great.

  43. I’ve never made whoopies before! But they look soooo delicious….

  44. I’ve made pumpkin whoopie pies with cream cheese fillings during thanksgiving. Super YUM!!!!

  48. I always buy whoopie pies when we visit Pennsylvania Dutch Country. I would love to make them!

  49. Oh Whoopie pies…. grew up loving them on the East Coast, but I’ve never made them! I should try because you can’t get them anywhere here in So Cal!

  50. i made them once, but for some reason they didn’t turn out very well…. but your post is making me want to give it another try!

  51. Heard of them, never tried them, but those sure sound delicious!

  52. I’ve never even heard of these before! Finland has such boring cakes. Your blog is very educational… and yummy! :D

  53. Whoopie pies have been featured in the UK press a lot lately – as a typical American food! I’m sworn off the naughties until my wedding in 26 days time, but being able to bake such delicious things would definitely put me in good stead for my wifely duties!

    xx

  54. I’ve never made a whoopie pie or even eaten one before but they look like a lot of fun. I’d love to make them! :-)

  55. Never heard of them, don´t even think we have them in Sweden. But I would love to try some, they look absolutely delicious!

  56. I’ve heard of them but I’ve never had a homemade one! The recipe is so easy, I can’t wait to give them a try!

  57. Yes! They are the new and upcoming thing here in the south part of England where I live (Brighton). I work in the popular cupcakery here, Angel Food Bakery. There is speculation that the whoopie will replace the cupcake but I find that hard to believe. Nevertheless, they are popular and are being eaten up like crazy.

  58. I’ve never seen these before, but they kind of remind me of your macarons-post. I was just wondering: the cakes, are they soft like cake or more crunchy like cookies. I’d love to give my friends a treat of these!

  59. I’ve heard of them but never had the opportunity to try a homemade one. Thanks for the recipe and the chance to win the book.

  60. Heard of them but never made them! Looks super yummy!! So wanna try it!

  64. I’ve heard of them, but never had one. I bet they’re delicious though…

  65. Whoopie pies!! Love them. Growing up in a heavily Pennsylvania Dutch influenced area whoopie pies were a fabulous treat. No one makes ’em better than my mama, though. A cookbook devoted specifically to whoopie pies would be divine!

  66. Oh Lordy …please pick me random thingybob!

    I so need whoopie pies in my life right now ….

  67. Never heard of ’em… They look kinda like the macroons you posted a while back (but by the recepie, very different indeed).
    Looks like fun!

  68. I’d love to make them. I’ve heard of them, but never eaten them before. A few of the bloggers I follow have made the red velvet ones. They look beautiful!

  70. I’ve heard of them but never tried one. I would love to add them to my repertoire!

  71. I love whoopie pies! I usually just make chocolate with a creamy vanilla filling but would love to try some new recipes for them. My kids would be so happy as they love them too!

    Spike

  73. Heard of them, eaten them, never made them – would love to make them! thanks!

  74. I never heard of them till 3 days ago, when I via StumbleUpon came across a wedding site that showed some cute red velvet whoopies.. I think I need to go bake some.. :)

  75. We in PA call them gobs. They are at EVERY bake sale. Chocolate with the traditional creamy white filling are the most commom. Pumpkin ones are tasty in the fall.

  76. Heard of em,but never had them or made em.What a loss!
    They look like fun to make!

  77. I want!!

  78. Everyone in my house is down in the dumps because their team (Holland) lost last night. Maybe if I make them some of these they will cheer up a little ……….

  79. honestly i never heard of them, but i really liked the idea! looks a bit like makroons:)

  80. This is my first post… hope it’s lucky!! I’ve heard of these, I saw the book and almost bought it! They remind me of moon pies… yum… :)

  81. they look sooo yummy!
    I’ve never heard of them here in Italy, but now I want to try them!

  82. Whoopies sort of remind me of oatmeal cookies with the cream filling in the center. I’ve heard of them before though, but I’m not quite sure where to get them. I would love to try a red velvet one with some cream cheese filling! :)

  83. I’ve heard of them but have never made them. They sure do look delicious though!!

  84. I NEVER HEARD OF WHOPPIE PIES! Oh wow! they look soo yummy! would definitely try to make them.. :D

  88. I’ve never made whoopie pies, but I have eaten them, and they are YUMMY!

  89. I have never made them before, but I have seen a packaged version somewhere at a convenience store. I’ve always wanted to make some though!

    They remind me of those Oreo Cakesters things, which I’ve never tried either….

    I first saw them on a food network show, no idea what one though, it was several years ago, but I think they said they are popular on the east coast.

  90. Please can you put your measures in grams and cups. Being English I don’t understand cups. Thank you!

  91. Whoppie Pies seem to be taking the UK by storm right now! I’d love to know how to make them, they look extra scrummy x

  92. The name rings a bell but I’m not hugely familiar with them! Never eaten one, never seen one. But I’d love to make some :D They look lovely!

  93. I LOVE Woopie Pies and have always wanted to figure out how to make them! Thanks for some yummy ideas! All those choices though….

  94. I’ve never heard of them before (certainly not in Ireland!) but they look lush… will have to try them out!

  95. I have stalked your blog for forever and not once have I been game enough to try out your recipes but …… I think this one might be the one! Mmmmm!

  96. I do not know them under that name, but I believe that they are very popular in France. And now I cannot remember their name there, totally blank… heheheh! But they are good too!
    I would love, love, love to win that book!

  97. i need to make these ASAP !!! they look woooooooow :D i saw the woopie pie mixture in william sonoms website but i wanted to make them from sctracth and without a special mold .. so this recipe is perffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffect :D

  98. Yes, I’ve heard of Whoopie Pies and seen them…but sadly, I’ve never tasted them. I love the addition of the pnut butter chips…looks tasty!

  99. Never heard of Whoopies but they sound delish and the way they look reminds me of French macarons. I’m sure they are equally yum as well. :)

  100. I made red velvet whoopie pies once, they’re lovely! I would love a whole book of recipes!

  101. heard of them but ive never made them, never even tasted them before!

    would lio

  102. I’ve enjoyed me many a whoopies. =) They are so fun to make!

  103. I saw this book during our recent vacation in Scotland and immediately fell in love – but alas! we had already been to some charity shops and bought about 2 dozen of books so my boyfriend said no (even though he loves eating biscuits almost as much as I love baking them!).
    If i don’t win it now I’ll definitely order it from Amazon.

  104. Here in NZ we have Ginger Kisses that look just like Whoopies – I’ve heard of them, but always from American TV

  105. Haven’t heard of them until now but thanks to bakerella Im tempted to give them a go!!

  106. If I had the book, I would make them…..as they look “good enough to eat” !!!! I think I would double the filling ! If I didn’t eat it all out of the bowl first ! They look irresistable .

  107. Have heard of them, never actually have seen them, but I will be making them tomorrow! Yum!

  108. I saw whoopie pies on another blog a few months back and since then they seem to be popping up everywhere! Word is that they are the next big thing in the UK, like cupcake popularity( i myself cant quite see them being that famous but they will be big, how can they not be when they are soo delicious!) my friend made some a couple weeks back with a whole marshmallow melted in the center. OH MY i ate soo many i was nearly ill :s but i will definitely have to try out some alternative fillings :D

  109. I’ve always wanted to give making them a try! I’ve heard of them but have never made them or ate them!

  110. Hi

    These look adorable and the book is so cute. I’ve never made whoopie pies but they are permanently on my list of things to bake soon.

    In the UK as far as I know the only place that you can get these little treats is in Harrods in London. But I live in Manchester and although they are lovely it’s just too far to go for a whoopie pie. I have tried one once a red velvet one filled with peanut butter frosting and it was amazing.

    Hopefully your post will motivate me to make these this week!

    Thank you for sharing.

    Beks

  111. I’ve heard of them and those look so good!

  119. I would completely love this book!!! I’ve made raspberry and coconut whoopies and they were fabulous, but when I make plain chocolate ones they’re all flat and sad looking :o( I need help from this book!!!!!!!

  120. I’ve heard of them on the internet, i tried the recipe from a blog and it failed. Yours sure look delicious. I will definetly try this recipe for my little girls 1st birthday. Thanks!!!

  128. I’ve never had one but my mom grew up on Woopie Pies in Tennessee. I didn’t get the benefit of growing up on them but I told her I’d one day surprise her with home made Woopie pies but never had the chance. I’ve heard about this book and seen it a few times on amazon. They look delicious!!!

  129. Definitely want to learn more about them! They look delicious :)

  130. i make them all the time….my church loves when i bring them to dinners we have, they go fast

  131. I have heard of whoppie pies, but I haven’t eaten one- I don’t believe…
    I would think I would remember that because they look delicious!

  132. I have heard of them but only recently as they appeared in a Sainsburys mag that I buy every month, but as yet not made them. Yours look delicious and now I want to make them maybe a project for this week to please the children. Thank you for sharing xx

  133. Never made them, but I have tried a chocolate/vanilla one before and it was delicious! Cute too!

  134. I have heard of them, but never made them or eaten them myself

  135. Whoopie Pies have been on my long, long list of things to try. You have inspired me to move it to the top of the list. Perhaps even tomorrow. Thanks!

  136. We don’t have whoopie pies in Australia but now that I’ve seen them I think I am going to have to make some!

  137. Oh I’m definately making this friday for a scrap night with friends, as i promised to bring something yummy and they look just right and I’ll have to go by your word as I’ve never had whoopie pies, can’t buy them here in the Netherlands….. Thanks for the recipe, the book looks like a must have !

  138. I’ve never tried making whoopie pies, and am not sure I’ve ever eaten one. I would love to try.

  139. I have seen them but I didn’t know they were called whoopie pies. They look amazing and I am going to make them and eat them now. You always make me hungry and inspired.

  140. I’ve never made them, but they’re on my short list of things I want to bake. I keep seeing them and I want to try them!

  141. Oh, sweet mystery of life…Whoopie Pies are legendary in my family! We make them with sweet cream cheese filling, but the peanut butter one might just beat it out… One year, a generous supply of individually wrapped ones was the sole gift my brother and his wife gave to everyone, and we all agreed it was the best present ever! Your photos capture such familiar stages in the process – they’re lovely – and I swear those ones with the peanut butter chips are SMILING!! I’d love, love, love to have a copy of the book – so glad someone finally did them homage!

  142. I live in Australia and have never heard of whoopie pies before but oh my they look like my kind of treat. I will definitely be baking some whoopie pies soon!

  143. I love Whoopie Pies & I made them too…only once though….and now that I think about it, I’m wondering why it’s been only once?! They were absolutely delicious! I would love to win this book…to make more delicious Whoopie Pie, of course – yum!

  147. I can’t wait to try them. So many different variations to try

  148. mmmmm whoopie pies
    we use an amish cookie recipe and they are delicious

  149. They look like a GOOD version of Moon Pies. Oreo has something similar with their “Cakesters,” too. Making them yourself has GOT to be better.

  150. I’ve done something similar with homemade Oreo cookies, which tend to make people weep with joy. These sound like so much fun and would make me so popular on guest lists!

  151. I have seen this book at Create and Barrel. They kinda remind me of moon pies.

  152. I just love the idea of all that yumminess in a couple of bites! Have never heard of whoopie pies! I kinda had made an ice cream sandwich and thought that was the ultimate! You have just set the bar higher! Yummy fillings! I need to know more!

  153. I always thought they were a store bought only, type cookie, until a friend gave me a recipe for pumpkin whoopie pies last fall..they were wonderful, fun to make and addicting to eat! Everyone loved them ..and wanted them..lol….would love to have a copy of this book on hand to try other flavors!!! Your great, you find the most fun things, keep it up PLEASE!!

  154. I love classic chocolate whoopie pies with vanilla cream, and red velvet with vanilla! Have been dying for this book to expand the repertoire!

  155. I have heard of them but never made them. They look yummy and I want to try them!

  156. I’ve never made whoopies, but they remind me of these awesome homemade Oreos that I love to make. I’d enjoy trying out the recipes in the book!

  157. well i’ve never heard of em’ or made em’. but i’m gonna be tryin’ out the recipe you posted for sure! these look and sound yumm-o!!!

  158. I’ve never tried or made them before …but now I’m getting the urge to make lots of whoopie!

  159. I’ve never ate them, never heard of them, but I’m definitely going to make them one of these days. They look yummie!

  160. Don’t have then in Israel…. Love to get the chance to spread out these Whoopies over seas!!!!

  161. Wauw..it looks delicious! I would love to have that book. Can’t wait to make them!

  162. I’ve seen them before but never made one.They look soooo yummy!!!! mmmmmm <3

  163. Love ’em….yummo! I’ve only made the classic ones. Ate some really good ones in Lancaster County, PA….especially like the Red Velvet version!

  164. I bought these lovely little cakes online. I have never made them, though. They are wonderful. My favorite is pumpkin with cream cheese filling. Yummy!

  165. I had some of those delicious whoopies. I never made them myself though. But I definitely want to give them a try.

  166. I have never made whoopie pies.. But I work at Ralph’s (which is Southern California’s Kroger), and we have them in the bakery! They have carrot whoopies, red velvet whoopies, chocolate and peanut butter, and chocolate and marshmallows. I love the chocolate and peanut butter, I think that I could make the red velvet better than Ralph’s though.

  167. Never made whoopies pies, but LOVE them! There’s a company called Wicked Whoopies that makes some yummy varieties. One of our local farmstands around here also comes out with pumpkin whoopie pies in the fall that are just scrumptious! Would love to try this book.

  168. I used to eat them all the time – I would love to make them myself – Thanks for the chance to win –

  169. I’ve seen them in a local bakery. I tried a dulce de leche one and I was hooked haha. I’ve never actually tried making them so this book would sure come in handy.

  170. I’ve wanted to try making them, but haven’t yet. On Food Network, I learned about Wicked Whoopies and they looked incredible. http://www.wickedwoopies.com

  171. Hmm…never heard of them, but they look yummy. Definitely something to add to my list of things to make at some point.

  172. I’ve actually never made whoopie pies before, but I KNOW I’ve seen them somewhere! They look so delicious and I would love to make them!

  173. i have heard of whoopie pies, but i’ve never made them. they look fun to make, though.

  174. Never made them, but love them!

  175. Ive never heard of them but im very curious to learn more about them!

  176. I was watching “The Today Show” a few years ago. They had a cookie contest and the winner had make pumpkin whoopies. I tried and loved them. Now I can only make them about once a year because my husband and I will eat the whole honkin big batch.

    So moral of the story, I think it would be fun to try new whoopies. Maybe I’ll look for my own copy if I don’t win. We are going to the states this Friday for our R & R leave. (We live in Cairo, Egypt) Hubby is Air Force and flies C-12’s at the Embassy here.

  177. Never done them, but now when i’ve seen them… My doughter’s birthday is coming up next week so perhaps i will bake some… :)

  178. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! they look sooo cool!!!! I want to make them and eat them right now!!!! Can you imagine, a brownie whoopie pie!? I have died and gone to heaven!

  179. i have never tried it but am going to “make whoopie” tomorrow!

  180. I’ve never heard of these, but they’re GENIUS!
    I’d love to get my hands on that yummy cookbook!

  181. These look sooo yummy. I think my kids and I would love making them. I’ve heard of whoopee pies but don’t think I’ve ever eaten one and I’ve definitely never made one so I look forward to trying to make some!

  182. The newspaper actually just had an article and recipes for these.I’ve never had them before so I wanted to make them but never got around to it but I will deff make these ones:)I hope I win:)

  183. Are whoopie pies like macaroons? They look similar. I’ve always thought whoopie pies were actually pies, like chocolate pie. Being Australian, we’re not huge “pie people”, but these whoopie pies look awesome!

  184. I’ve never made them, but that creamy white filling looks like it would be my answer to late night sweet cravings. I fear it’d never make it to the pies!

  185. Never made whoopies but definately want to try after seeing these pics!

  186. I’ve heard abut them but haven’t tried them!

  187. Nope, never had whoopies, but would love to try them.

  188. The only ones I’ve ever had (if they even count) are sad little processed ones from the grocery store. But they look so fun to make!

  189. I’ve never made them but they look absolutely amazing!

    have a nice day,
    Paula

  190. I’ve never made them but have been wanting to for some time! I love any kind of sandwich cookie, they are so pretty! I saw this book at Sur La Table and almost bought it. I wish I would have!

  191. I’ve made these before but never know they are called whoopie pies. I sandwich them with ice cream in between, absolutely delicious! Thanks for the recipe!!!

  192. I am excited about these .. Mom always had whoopie pies around while growing up .. Me and my 3 yr old grand-daughter are going to give this a whirl tomorrow .. Thank you for the inspiration ..

  193. I’ve heard of them, but not that familiar with them. Look like Oreo Cakesters to me. I guess the closest I’ve ever gotten to making them myself is the homemade sandwich cookies I’ve done…homemade Oreoes & peanut butter sandwich cookes. Mmmm…yum!

  194. never heard of them, but now really really need to make some, quick…i need a recipe book :)

  195. I’ve seen recipes but never made them. I would if I had this cool book, though!

  196. I’ve seen them in Amish communitites, but I’ve never made them!

  197. I never made them
    I love to win please !

  198. I’ve heard of them as moon pies. I think normally with a soft oatmeal cookie sort of cake…

  199. I’ve heard of them, but never eaten or made them!

  200. Why, yes, I have heard of whoopie pies, but I’ve never made them. I’ve only seen the classic chocolate cake/white filling variety so it’s fun seeing all the possible variations.
