I found this recipe on the box of sugar free devils food cake mix from Pillsbury. I made them and they were so darn cute and simple! The filling calls for an oz. package of cream cheese softened, and added to frosting. I decided to leave it out and just spread the frosting that I whipped a little more and they turned out great.

WHOOPIE PIES (OR DEVIL DOGS)



Whoopie Pies (Or Devil Dogs) image

These are good. Filling is extra fluffy and delicious. It is not a sugary filling. The pies are extra chocolate-ty and soft. Wrap them individually in a baggie and freeze for later or eat all of them now.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 1h5m

Yield 14 pies

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/3 cup Crisco
1 egg
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
6 tablespoons cocoa
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup milk
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup Crisco
2 teaspoons vanilla

Steps:

  • WHOOPIE PIES:.
  • Mix the Crisco, sugar, and egg till fluffy.
  • Slowly add the milk and vanilla; mix well.
  • Add the flour, cocoa, soda, and salt.
  • Beat well.
  • Drop by spoonfuls on ungreased baking sheet.
  • Bake at 350°F for 7-10 minutes.
  • FILLING:.
  • Using a jar for a shaker combine the milk, flour, and salt; shake well.
  • Put this into a saucepan and cook slowly over medium heat till very thick and smooth, and then cool.
  • In a electric mixer put the Crisco, sugar, and vanilla and beat about 5 minutes.
  • Add the cooled paste and beat it for about 5 more minutes till very light and fluffy.
  • I turn the mixer to high and beat it quite a while; it is worth it.
  • Fill the pies and put into a baggie.

Tips:

  • Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This will help the batter come together more easily and produce a smoother cake.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with batter, the cakes need to bake longer.
  • Let the cakes cool completely before filling them. Filling warm cakes can cause the filling to melt and make the cakes messy.
  • Chill the filled cakes for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the filling set and make the cakes easier to eat.

Conclusion:

Devil's food whoopie pies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and creamy filling, they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a fun and festive dessert, give these whoopie pies a try!
