Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 c all-purpose flour
5 Tbsp dark unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 c butter (1 stick), softened
1 c sugar
2 egg yolks
1/2 Tbsp double-strength vanilla
1 c milk
FILLING
1 c sugar
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 c evaporated milk
2 egg yolks
3/4 tsp double-strength vanilla
3/4 c butter (1 1/2 sticks), cut into pieces
2 c toasted sweetened flaked coconut
2 c toasted pecan halves, finely chopped ganache and garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line Cookie Sheet with Parchment Paper. Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and baking soda in Mixing Bowl. Combine butter, sugar, egg yolks and vanilla in Mixing Bowl; beat on medium-high speed of electric mixer until well blended. On low speed, add flour mixture in three additions, alternating with milk in two additions; mix well.
  • 2. Using level Small Scoop, scoop batter onto prepared Cookie Sheet 2 in. (5 cm) apart; bake 7-9 minutes or until cookies spring back when lightly pressed. Slide parchment and cookies onto Cooling Rack; cool completely. Repeat with remaining batter.
  • 3. For filling, combine sugar and salt in (2-qt./1.9-L) Saucepan. Gradually whisk in evaporated milk, egg yolks and vanilla using Silicone Sauce Whisk. Add butter; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, 8-10 minutes or until temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Pour into Classic Batter Bowl. Add coconut and pecans; mix well. Refrigerate 1 hour or until cool. Meanwhile, prepare Ganache.
  • 4. To assemble, turn cookies bottom side up. Using slightly scant Medium Scoop, scoop filling onto half of the cookies, pressing down slightly so filling spreads almost to the edge. Spoon 1 tsp (5 mL) ganache on remaining half of cookies. Place one filled cookie on top of ganache, pressing slightly. Garnish, if desired.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, but these whoopie pies were surprisingly good. The cake was moist and fluffy, and the filling was rich and creamy.

These whoopie pies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference.

I found that the cake batter was a bit too thick, so I added a little bit of milk. The whoopie pies turned out great!

These whoopie pies are a bit more time-consuming to make than some other recipes, but they're definitely worth the effort.

I love that these whoopie pies can be made ahead of time and frozen. It makes them a great option for busy weeknights.

The dark chocolate ganache filling is what really makes these whoopie pies special. It's so rich and decadent, and it pairs perfectly with the moist chocolate cake.
