Strawberry Whoopie Pies Recipe By Tasty

GIANT WHOOPIE PIE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Grease and line 2 10-inch (25 cm) round cake pans with parchment paper.
• Make the whoopie pie: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, salt, baking soda, and brown sugar, making sure there are no lumps.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, then pour in the water, vinegar, vanilla and oil to the well. Whisk to combine, working slowly to avoid clumps.
• Scoop 2½ cups (600 g) of batter into the center of each cake pan. Use an offset spatula or a knife to spread the edges of the batter just to the edges of the pans. Do not level the top of the cake, to help create a domed shape.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Make the filling: In a large bowl, combine the butter and marshmallow fluff and cream with an electric hand mixer for 2-3 minutes, until fully combined. Sift in the powdered sugar, then beat for another 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Transfer the filling to a piping bag or zip-top bag. Cut a 2-inch (5 cm) wide opening on a corner.
• Invert a cake onto a serving platter so the domed side is facing down. Pipe a thick spiral of filling onto the cake, leaving a ¼-inch (½ cm) border around the edge, and smooth with an offset spatula. Place the remaining cake on top of the filling, domed side up, and push down slightly to attach.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

NEAPOLITAN WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
• Combine cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs in a large bowl.
• Form dough into eighteen 1-inch balls and place on a cookie sheet. Flatten each ball with the palm of your hand.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 6 to 8 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes.
• Add whipped topping to one side of each cookie, working in pairs. Sprinkle 1/2 of the cookies with crushed Oreos®, then sandwich with remaining cookies. Wrap each whoopie pie with plastic wrap and place in a 1-gallon freezer bag.
• Freeze for at least 1 hour before serving.

STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• For the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• Beat together the brown sugar, butter and vanilla in a large bowl with a stand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the egg and beat until combined. Reduce the speed to low and add the dry ingredients in 3 batches, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients; beat after each addition until just combined.
• Scoop tablespoon-mounds of batter and place on the prepared baking sheets about 1 inch apart. You should have 20 cookies per baking sheet.
• Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until the tops of the cookies spring back when lightly touched, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely, about 30 minutes. Using a small fine-mesh sieve, dust the tops of the cookies with confectioners' sugar.
• For the filling: While the cookies cool, whisk the cream cheese and marshmallow creme together in a medium bowl with a handheld mixer until smooth and well combined. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a medium round tip.
• Gently fold the strawberries and jam together with a rubber spatula in a medium bowl until combined; set aside.
• Flip half of the cookies so they are flat-side up; pipe a ring of cream cheese filling around the edge of the cookies to create a "dam," then spoon about 1 teaspoon of the strawberry filling in the center. Sandwich them with the remaining cookies flat-side down. Using a small fine-mesh sieve, dust the tops of the cookies with confectioners' sugar.
