Whoopie Pies. 

I grew up eating these Southern specialities when my Mama would bake them up and surprise us after school. My fave variety was chocolate and cream, but Mama also made an amazing Chocolate-Peppermint Whoopie Pie at Christmastime.  This year, I decided to take her recipe and “Fall” it up a bit by making Pumpkin Whoopie Pies.  They are soooo good, y’all.  They will make you say yum and want to…well, WHOOP!  🙂  

Here is the recipe.

………………………………………………………………….

I am not a baker.  

I really didn’t bake a lot in my early years.  I finally figured out that it was because I wasn’t someone who cooked by recipes and measured things out.  Baking is a precise art, whereas, cooking is not.  In fact, most of my recipes are in my head.  I cook with a pinch here and a dash there.  (It drives people crazy.)  LOL

One day, I needed to bake a cake from scratch.  It was another of my Mama’s recipes.   And something inside me blossomed.  That undiscovered baker I had no idea existed.  I actually enjoyed the measuring and the precise recipe following.

Now, I won’t say I am a terrific baker. It’s not natural to me.  I have to follow a recipe to the T.  But there is a strange calming effect when baking, and a sense of accomplishment when something baked from scratch comes out successful.  I wasn’t sure how these Pumpkin Whoopie Pies would turn out.  But, they may very well be one of my fave Fall baked items.

I hope you get to try this recipe, too.  If you do, please let me know what you think.  

Thanks for letting me share this recipe with you.

    So, this is a little embarrassing to admit in public, especially since I consider myself to be an accomplished baker and cook, but…I have never made a whoopie pie! Say what!? Looks like I need to remedy that situation before the word gets out. thanks for the recipe!

    Hope you are all surviving the post Matthew floods that are plaguing our beautiful state!

    Hugs, Lynn

      LOL, it’s ok. I honestly had not made them myself until a few years ago. I didn’t think I could live up to my mama’s. It’s basically two cookies filled with cream. 😀 We did survive in this part of NC, but I am so sad for what is happening a few hours away. 🙁 Thanks for stopping by.

    They do sound delicious..but I am going to admit… I had NEVER even heard of a ‘whoopie pie until Tim Horton’s here in Canada came out with them a few months ago…Chocolate ones that is…. OMG…they are to die for you are right. So my question to you is…Do you have a recipe for the chocolate whoopie pies? Because I do love to bake and I would love to try and make them…heck even the peppermint ones sound hard to resist… I would love it if you could and or would share the recipe…but I do understand if it is a ‘family secret’ too. Thanks in advance.

            You are so very welcome. Let me know what you think. Btw, Mama simply adds Peppermint extract to the cream filling recipe for the Chocolate-Peppermint version. Sorry I forgot to tell you that. 🙂
