Best 7 Kid Safe Whoopie Pies Recipes

CHOCOLATE WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla. Beat until well combined. Gradually add in the milk, scraping the bottom of the bowl as needed. The batter might curdle, but don't worry, it will come together when you add the dry ingredients.
• Slowly add dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
• Using a 1-oz cookie or ice cream scoop, drop the batter onto the prepared baking pan 2″ apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before frosting.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter until smooth and creamy. Add in the vanilla, one cup of powdered sugar, and one tbsp of milk. Mix well. Add the remaining powdered sugar, one cup at a time, alternating with 1 tbsp of milk at a time. Add in the last tbsp of milk if needed for the desired consistency.
• Transfer buttercream to a disposable pastry bag and snip the end. When cookies have cooled completely, pipe the buttercream onto 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.

WHOOPIE PIE RECIPE

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.

CHOCOLATE WHOOPIE PIES WITH VANILLA CREAM CHEESE FILLING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
• Line cookie sheets with parchment paper
• In a one cup measuring cup, add the lemon juice. Fill the cup the rest of the way with milk and set aside for 10-15 minutes to make buttermilk.
• In a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer, or in the bowl of a standmixer, cream together 1/2 cup butter, the brown sugar, and granulated sugar.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg with a fork and add it to the large bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla and lemon-milk mixture and mix all the ingredients well until they are combined.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Mix all the dry ingredients well, then add the dry ingredients to your wet ingredients and mix well until combined. The batter will be a little on the fudgy side.
• On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, place 2 tablespoons of batter for each cookie. Try to keep your whoopie pies in as much of a circle and even in size as you can. (A cookie scoop really helps to make the whoopie pies even, but most standard are 11/2 tablespoons. Expect to have a few more, slightly smaller whoopie pies!)
• Bake in the oven for 11 to 12 minutes. Remove quickly from the pan as soon as you can and let the whoopie pies cool on a wire rack or clean kitchen towel.
• In a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer, whip 1/2 cup of butter for 5 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the cream cheese and beat for 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well between each addition. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla and mix for 1 minute more.
• Once cool, match up your whoopie pies in pairs so that they are as close in size and shape as possible. Fill an icing bag or zip-top bag with filling. Snip a medium hole in the end of your bag.
• On the flat side of one of your whoopie pies, pipe filling around the outside edge as close to the edge as possible, then swirl in, filling into the center. Place a second whoopie pie on top. Roll the edge in sprinkles to decorate.

MAINE WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until combined.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar for 2 minutes using the paddle attachment until light. Add egg and vanilla, then beat again, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl.
• Alternate adding the flour mixture with the buttermilk, beating after each addition and scraping the sides of the bowl, just until combined.
• Use a small to medium cookie scoop to drop batter onto the parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2-3 inches apart. If you want 8 really large whoopie pies, you should do 16 scoops of batter. For more reasonably sized whoopie pies, do 20 to 24 scoops of batter to make 10-12 whoopie pies.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until just done around the edges and the tops bounce back when lightly touched. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring the cookies to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
• Combine the shortening and powdered sugar in a large bowl. Beat well using a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth. Add marshmallow fluff and vanilla extract, then beat again, scraping the sides of the bowl so everything gets evenly combined.
• Pipe a generous amount of frosting onto the flat bottom of one cookie, then top with another cookie to make a whoopie pie. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling.

WHOOPIE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon baking sheet.
• Put the unsweetened and semisweet chocolates and butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl; heat at 75 percent power until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir, and continue to microwave until completely melted, about 2 minutes more. (Alternatively, put the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, but not touching the water, and stir occasionally until melted and smooth.)
• Whisk the sugar, eggs and vanilla into the chocolate mixture until smooth.
• Sift the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt into another bowl. Gradually whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until moistened. Switch to a rubber spatula and finish folding the batter together; take care not to over-mix.
• Use a small cookie scoop or spoon to drop a heaping tablespoon of batter onto the prepared pan. Repeat to make 36 cookies, spacing them about 1-inch apart. Bake until the cookies spring back when lightly touched, about 6 minutes.
• Cool the cookies slightly. Transfer half of the cookies to a rack. Turn the remaining cookies on the pan over, so they lay flat side up. Place a marshmallow on top of each flipped cookie and return pan to the oven. Cook just until the marshmallow begins to soften and puff, about 3 minutes. Cool marshmallow topped cookies slightly, about 2 minutes. Top with the remaining cookies, pressing lightly to make sandwiches. Cool whoopee pies completely on wire racks. Serve.
• Store in tightly sealed container for up to 1 week.
