CHOCOLATE GOBS WITH ICING
Gobs are a traditional favorite around here, but it seems that many people out of the area have never even heard of them! Also known as "Whoopie pies" or "Moon pies"...whatever you call them, they are FANTASTIC!! Kids love them. Add food coloring to the icing depending on the occasion. (Red for V-day, green for St. Patty's, etc.) They also freeze well.

Tips:
- To make the perfect chocolate gobs, use high-quality chocolate. A good rule of thumb is to use chocolate that contains at least 70% cocoa.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the gobs tough.
- Bake the gobs until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the gobs cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate or semisweet chocolate.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- To make the frosting, you can use any type of frosting you like. Cream cheese frosting, chocolate frosting, or vanilla frosting are all good choices.
- If you don't have time to make the frosting, you can also dust the gobs with powdered sugar.
Conclusion:
Chocolate gobs are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and creamy frosting, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
