Yield Makes about 15 sandwich cookies

Number Of Ingredients 23

Cookies:
2 cups all purpose flour
5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/8 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup nonhydrogenated solid vegetable shortening or unsalted butter (1 stick), room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup whole milk
Mint Filling:
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons nonhydrogenated solid vegetable shortening or unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups plus 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/4 cup egg whites (from about 2 large eggs)
3 to 4 drops green food coloring
Chocolate Ganache:
3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chips
Special Equipment:
Pastry bag or resealable plastic bag
Medium-size star pastry tip

Steps:

  • Cookies:
  • Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 375°F. Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat shortening, sugar, egg yolks, and vanilla in large bowl until well blended, about 2 minutes. Add flour mixture in 3 additions alternately with milk in 2 additions, beating until blended after each addition.
  • Drop dough by very rounded tablespoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing 3 inches apart. Bake 1 sheet at a time until cookies are slightly puffed and spread but are still soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on sheets 10 minutes. Carefully transfer cookies to racks and cool completely. Repeat with remaining cookie dough. DO AHEAD: Cookies can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight in single layer at room temperature.
  • Mint Filling:
  • Using electric mixer, beat shortening, peppermint extract, and vanilla in large metal bowl until blended. Add powdered sugar, egg whites, and pinch of salt; beat until light and fluffy. Add food coloring drop by drop for desired shade of green; beat until well blended. If mixture looks curdled, place bowl over low heat several seconds and beat until smooth. Repeat as necessary until smooth.
  • Ganache:
  • Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Bring cream to simmer in heavy small saucepan. Remove from heat. Add chocolate; whisk until smooth. Cool until lukewarm but spreadable, about 15 minutes.
  • Spoon 1 teaspoon ganache onto bottom (flat side) of half of cookies. Place cookies, ganache side up, on prepared baking sheet.
  • Spoon mint filling into pastry bag fitted with medium star tip (or spoon filling into resealable plastic bag, squeezing filling into 1 corner of bag, then cut off 1/4 inch of plastic bag corner to allow for piping). Starting at outer edge of bottom (flat side) of remaining cookies and working toward center, pipe mint filling in spiral. Place 1 mint-filled cookie, mint side down, atop each ganache-topped cookie, pressing slightly to adhere. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.

Time 30m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
½ cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon espresso powder, optional
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
¾ cup light brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon peppermint extract
1 cup whole milk, room temperature
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
14 oz marshmallow cream
2 ½ cups powdered sugar, plus more as needed
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
40 crushed peppermint candies

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Make the cakes: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder, if using.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Add the egg and peppermint extract and beat until smooth and lightened in color, about 1 minute.
  • Add about a third of the dry ingredients and mix on medium-low speed until combined, then add half of the milk and mix until incorporated. Continue alternating additions of the dry ingredients and milk, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
  • Use a 1½-ounce ice cream scoop to portion out the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing at least 2 inches apart.
  • Bake the cakes for 12-14 minutes, until firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  • Make the marshmallow filling: Add the butter and marshmallow creme to a large bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed until fully combined, 2-3 minutes. Sift in the powdered sugar and salt, then beat for another 2-3 minutes, until combined. The mixture should be stiff; if not, add a few more tablespoons of powdered sugar. Transfer the filling to a piping bag or zip-top bag. Place the piping bag in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before assembling the whoopie pies.
  • When ready to assemble, cut a 1-inch (2.5 cm)-wide opening from the corner of the piping bag.
  • Pipe a thick spiral of the filling (¼-⅓ cup) onto the flat sides of half of the cakes, leaving a ¼-inch (½ cm) border around the edge. Place the remaining cakes on top of the filling, domed sides up, and press down lightly to adhere.
  • Add the crushed peppermint candies to a bowl. Roll the sides of each whoopie pie into the peppermint candies to coat. (For a more polished look, use a spoon to tilt the crushed peppermints onto the exposed filling).
  • Refrigerate the whoopie pies until ready to serve, then remove from the refrigerator at least 10 minutes prior to serving.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality chocolate chips. Semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips will give you the most intense chocolate flavor.
  • Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. The centers should be slightly soft and the edges should be golden brown.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from melting.
  • For the filling, use a high-quality mint extract. This will give you the most intense mint flavor.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off to fill the cookies.
  • Serve the whoopie pies immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie Whoopie Pies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their delicious chocolate cookie shells and minty filling, these whoopie pies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
