Brownie Whoopie Pies- Big Green House

What’s a Whoopie Pie? Traditionally, a whoopie pie is two soft cookies that are sandwiched together with a creamy filling. They come in a wide variety of flavors when it comes to the pies and the filling.

Ingredients List:

  • Dry brownie mix
  • Eggs
  • Milk
  • Oil
  • Flour
  • Powdered sugar
  • Butter
  • Shortening
  • Vanilla

Brownie Mix: Any brand or variety will work. To be sure your ingredients will work, stick with an 18 oz size box.

Oil: A neutral tasting oil works best for these. If desired, you can replace the oil with melted butter. Simply let the butter cool before adding it to the batter.

Shortening: I like butter flavored shortening sticks. However, go with your favorite brand/variety.

Recipe Notes:

  • These whoopie pies are thinner than your traditional whoopie pie
  • Don’t over bake your pies. They are done when the edges are set. Be sure to let them sit on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes to cool before removing them.
  • When you scoop your batter on to the baking sheet, it will spread. Don’t freak out, it will stop. However, keep this in mind when scooping your dough. Depending on the size of whoopie pies you want, I would start with approx 2 tablespoons of dough when scooping and increase as desired.
  • Reminder: Be sure that your butter and shortening are softened before making the filling.

Storage: Keep any leftover pies or filling in your refrigerator. The filling should be covered.
