Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h

Yield 12 whoopie pies

Number Of Ingredients 16

Cooking spray
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch process)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon fine salt
1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 cup well-shaken buttermilk
1 1/2 pounds confectioners' sugar (about 6 cups)
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk
Chopped toasted almonds, for coating the edges

Steps:

  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment and lightly coat with cooking spray.
  • Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Beat together the brown sugar, butter and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Add the egg and beat until combined. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the buttermilk in 2 batches, beating after each addition until just combined.
  • Scoop 2-tablespoon mounds of batter onto the baking sheets about 2-inches apart. Moisten your fingers and gently form each mound into a round and slightly smooth the top. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Bake the cookies, rotating the trays halfway through, until the tops bounce back when gently touched, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
  • For the buttercream filling: Put the confectioners' sugar and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on low speed until just incorporated, about 1 minute. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat until smooth and fully incorporated. Turn the mixer off and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the raspberry jam and vanilla extract. Turn the mixer back on to medium speed and beat until well mixed, 1 to 2 minutes. With the mixer off, add the milk. Mix together on low speed until just incorporated.
  • Flip half of the cookies over and spread the bottoms with the filling. Top each with another cookie--bottom facing in--to make a sandwich.
  • Put the almonds on a plate and roll the edge of each whoopee pie in the almonds to coat.

  • Meanwhile, combine the corn syrup, 1/2 cup water and the remaining 3/4 cup sugar in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until the mixture reaches the firm-ball stage, about 245 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
  • Turn on the mixer to medium speed. Slowly pour the hot syrup into the egg whites, then beat on high until the mixture is thick, fluffy and cool, 5 to 7 minutes. Beat in the vanilla. Let cool completely.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Measuring Accurately: Use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients for the most accurate results. This is especially important for baking, where precise measurements are essential.
  • Room Temperature Ingredients: Bring your butter and eggs to room temperature before using them. This will help them mix together more easily and create a smoother batter.
  • Don't Overmix: When mixing the batter, be careful not to overmix it. Overmixing can make the whoopie pies tough and dense.
  • Chill the Dough: After mixing the batter, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will help the dough firm up and make it easier to handle.
  • Use a Cookie Scoop: Use a cookie scoop to drop the batter onto the baking sheet. This will help you get uniform-sized whoopie pies.
  • Bake until the Edges are Set: Bake the whoopie pies until the edges are set and the tops are just starting to brown. Overbaking can dry out the whoopie pies.
  • Let the Whoopie Pies Cool Completely: Before filling the whoopie pies, let them cool completely on a wire rack. This will help prevent the filling from making the whoopie pies soggy.
  • Make the Filling Ahead of Time: You can make the raspberry cream filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the whoopie pies.

Conclusion:

Vanilla whoopie pies with raspberry cream filling are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips and tricks, you can create these delicious whoopie pies that are sure to impress your friends and family.
