Provided by Shiran

Time 42m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 and 3/4 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
2/3 cup (65g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 and 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick/115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar (or brown sugar)
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup (240 ml) buttermilk, room temperature
1/2 cup (1 stick/115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
2 cups Marshmallow Fluff
1 cup (115 g/4 oz.) powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Make the cakes: Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. Line 2 baking pans with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg, and vanilla and mix until combined, then mix in buttermilk. Slowly add dry ingredients, and mix just until combined.
  • Scoop mounds of batter, 1 and 1/2 tablespoons in size (I use this ice cream scoop), onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2-3 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops spring back when touched. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Make the filling: Place all ingredients in a large bowl and beat with a mixer until creamy and fluffy. If the filling is too stiff, you can add a little heavy cream or milk.
  • Assemble the cookies: Spread filling on the flat side of half the cookies. Sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing down slightly so that the filling spreads to the edge of the cookies.
  • Store in the fridge, well covered, for up to a week. Serve at room temperature.

WORLD'S BEST MAINE WHOOPIE PIES - AYUH



World's Best Maine Whoopie Pies - Ayuh image

Whoopie Pies are one of those comfort foods that make you want more than one. They just don't get any better. Though Whoopie Pies can be delicious any old way...the preferred way to have them is about 5-10 minutes out of the freezer. Tall glass of milk and one of these Whoopies...you will not have a care in the world! The frosting is phenomenal, but make sure you remember that when making it, it will look like a real mess until you've beaten it on high for at least five minutes. Sometime after that it will become like nothing you've seen or eaten. This makes a big batch and is easily halved.

Time 1h

Yield 25

Number Of Ingredients 17

½ cup vegetable shortening
2 cups milk
2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (such as Hershey's®)
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (such as Hershey's®)
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 cup milk
1 cup butter at room temperature
1 cup vegetable shortening
2 cups white sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 (7 ounce) jars marshmallow creme

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Cut and set aside 25 pieces of plastic wrap about 5 inches square.
  • For cookies, beat 1/2 cup of vegetable shortening, 2 cups of milk, 2 cups of sugar, the eggs, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract together in a large mixing bowl until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whisk the 4 cups of flour with both amounts of unsweetened cocoa, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly combined. Beat the flour mixture into the wet ingredients just until smooth.
  • Scoop up the batter by teaspoons, and drop onto ungreased baking sheets in small round dollops about 2 inches apart. Recipe should make about 50 cookies. The cookies will rise and expand a lot.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are set in the middle, 8 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool on baking sheets for several minutes before removing to finish cooling on racks.
  • To make the filling, place 1 cup milk in a microwave-safe measuring cup, and cook in microwave until hot but not simmering, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the heated milk into a large mixing bowl. Add the cup of room temperature butter, 1 cup of vegetable shortening, 2 cups of sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and the marshmallow creme. Beat the mixture on high speed until the frosting is fluffy, 5 to 10 minutes. At first the frosting will appear lumpy, but keep beating.
  • To fill the cookies, choose 2 cookies that are about the same size, and spread about 1 1/2 tablespoon of the frosting onto the flat bottom of a cookie. Top with the other cookie, flat side down, and wrap the filled cookie in a sheet of plastic wrap. Place the filled cookie into the freezer. Repeat with remaining cookies and frosting, wrapping each whoopie pie in plastic wrap and freezing.
  • To serve, remove whoopie pies from the freezer and allow to thaw until very cold but not frozen, 10 to 15 minutes.

Yield Makes 2 dozen sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 cups buttermilk, room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Simple Seven-Minute Frosting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Sift together flour, salt, cocoa powder, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside. Line 2 baking pans with Silpats (French nonstick baking mats) or parchment paper. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla. Beat until well combined. Slowly add dry ingredients. Mix until combined.
  • Using a 1-ounce ice cream scoop, place cookies onto lined baking pans, 12 per pan. Bake for 12 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool. Repeat with remaining batter.
  • Spread 2 tablespoons frosting onto each of 24 cookies. Sandwich together with remaining 24 cookies.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients, especially for the frosting and filling. This will ensure the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure the cake layers are completely cool before assembling the cake. This will prevent the frosting from melting and sliding off the cake.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the frosting.
  • Decorate the cake with your favorite toppings, such as sprinkles, chocolate chips, or crushed Oreos.
  • Store the cake in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
