Whoopie pies
Whoopie pies are a classic American dessert that consists of two soft, cake-like cookies sandwiched together with a creamy filling. The cookies are made from cocoa and buttermilk, giving them a rich, chocolaty flavor and a tender texture.
The filling is typically made from a combination of marshmallow fluff, butter, and confectioners' sugar, resulting in a light and fluffy consistency. Whoopie pies can be found in various flavors, such as traditional chocolate, red velvet, pumpkin, and even peanut butter.
They are a beloved treat at bake sales, parties, and family gatherings, and their indulgent taste and nostalgic appeal continue to make them a popular choice for dessert lovers of all ages.
