I'm not sure what went wrong with these whoopie pies, but they turned out terrible. I followed the recipe exactly, but they were still a disaster.

These whoopie pies were a waste of time and ingredients. They were dense and flavorless.

I didn't like these whoopie pies at all. The maple flavor was too strong, and the filling was too sweet.

These whoopie pies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would probably cut back on the sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of maple, but these pies were still delicious. The filling was creamy and sweet, and the cookies were soft and cakey. I would definitely make these again, but maybe with a different filling next time.
