whoopie pies

My stepmom brought these up the other day and they are delish! Seriously, don't read any farther unless you are prepared (both for utter delight and added inches to your waistline!)

Fortunately, they're really quick and easy to make; I made these while Elliot was taking a nap this morning. There are tons of different recipes out there, but this one is great:

Whoopie Pies

for cookie:

Pillsbury family size Chocolate Fudge Brownie mix

follow package directions using 3 eggs, plus add 1 1/2 C flour & 2 tsp baking soda

drop by rounded teaspoonfuls on parchment paper spaced 2-3 inches apart

bake for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees; let cool on wire rack

filling:

2 C marshmallow cream

2 C confectioners sugar

1 stick softened butter

2 tsp vanilla

4 oz cream cheese

mix all ingredients together and beat until fluffy

spread generous amounts of filling between two chocolate cookies

wrap individually & refrigerate

So go make some whoopie, pies that is ;)
