Whoopie Pies


I've been excited to try making these delicious desserts ever since I bought the book Whoopie Pies. They are the perfect combination of a crispy sweet outside and a gooey savory middle. When I found a whoopie pie maker at Sur La Table I thought I had won the lottery and stumbled upon an easy and quick way to make the perfect little pie. I was wrong. It looked like a war zone in the kitchen. I had frosting and chocolate all over me and almost broke out in tears. Next time I plan to make them the old fashioned way. Despite their sad appearance they still tasted great and we ate every last bite!

My normal outfit post was scheduled for today, but I will post it tomorrow. I changed my domain name and there are still some issues being worked out. Thanks for your patience!

I know what you mean about being near tears. I tried making whoopie pies a few weeks ago. The recipe said to use parchment paper. I used wax paper thinking it was the same thing! Smoke started coming out of my oven and my smoke alarms would not shut off! I could go on, but it was a baking experience best to be forgotten...
