Pro Tips
Filling: If you prefer something other than a cream cheese filling, a thick frosting can be used like our chocolate buttercream frosting.
Sizing: Make the cookies as evenly sized as possible as you will need two that match to make the sandwich.
Cooling: Make sure to let the cakes cool completely before adding the filling to avoid melting the filling.
Toppings – If you feel like being extra special, try drizzling some chocolate syrup or caramel sauce over the top of these whoopie pies! You can also sprinkle powdered sugar on top.
