It isn’t sweet enough, and comes out much to thick like cookie dough as opposed to how it should be which is a bit like whipped frosting.

This recipe only makes 18 whoopies for me, so only 9 pies when put together. My heaping tablespoon is more like two tablespoons, so that explains it. This large it takes mine 14 minutes to cook to perfection.

Lover boy is sooo loving these, and they go straight to the freezer when done now so that he can pull one out for an afternoon snack each day – they don’t freeze, they just get nice and cold and perfect!

Something different than my ordinary cookies, pies, cakes and quick breads.

I used Ovaltine in place of the Quik drink mix, because it is all I had. It didn’t make the whoopies quite as chocolately as I imagined they should be, so I also added 1/2 cup cocoa to the filling for some added chocolate goodness. Ialso didn’t have enough marshmallow creme, so I added in some cream cheese there. All of this made one excellent whoopie.

And they are GREAT frozen! I wrapped them in saran wrap like the creator mentioned and popped them in the freezer today. After dinner we wanted dessert, and we took them out and instead of waiting to thaw we just dug right in – and now I think I have found the PERFECT summer dessert for all those nieces of mine!
