Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes 12 whoopie pies

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon ground cloves
1 cup vegetable oil
3 cups pumpkin puree, chilled
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups firmly packed dark-brown sugar
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Make the cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves; set aside. In another large bowl, whisk together oil, pumpkin puree, eggs, and vanilla until well combined. Add brown sugar and whisk until combined. Sprinkle flour mixture over pumpkin mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.
  • Using a 1/4-cup ice cream scoop with a release mechanism, drop dough onto prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Transfer to oven and bake until cookies are just starting to crack on top and a toothpick inserted into the center of each cookie comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely on pan.
  • Make the filling: Sift confectioners' sugar into a medium bowl; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter until smooth. Add cream cheese and beat until well combined. Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla, beat just until smooth. (Filling can be made up to a day in advance. Cover and refrigerate; let stand at room temperature to soften before using.)
  • Assemble the whoopie pies: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Transfer filling to a disposable pastry bag and snip the end. When cookies have cooled completely, pipe a large dollop of filling on the flat side of half of the cookies. Sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing down slightly so that the filling spreads to the edge of the cookies. Transfer to prepared baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate cookies at least 30 minutes before serving and up to 3 days.

Number Of Ingredients 27

Cookie-cakes:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 (15-ounce) can pure pumpkin (not pie filling)
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Candied pecans:
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
Pinch of salt
1/2 tablespoon water
1/2 cup pecans
Filling:
6 ounces cream cheese, softened
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon bourbon (optional; substitute 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)
Special Equipment
2 large baking sheets; parchment paper; 1-ounce round ice cream scoop (optional; see Cooks' Notes)

Steps:

  • For cookie-cakes:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, soda, salt, and spices in a bowl.
  • Whisk together sugar, oil, pumpkin, egg, and vanilla in a separate large bowl until well combined, then stir in flour mixture.
  • Using a 1-ounce ice cream scoop or tablespoon measure, drop a scant scoop's worth of batter or 2 scant tablespoons of batter onto a lined baking sheet to form 1 mound. Make 15 more mounds, arranging them 2 inches apart until baking sheet is full (you will have batter left over).
  • Bake until springy to the touch, 12 to 18 minutes. Transfer cookie-cakes to rack to cool.
  • Form and bake remaining batter on the other parchment-lined sheet. You should have a total of 32 cookie-cakes.
  • Leave oven on.
  • For candied pecans:
  • Line a small sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Stir together sugar, salt, and 1/2 tablespoon water in a small saucepan. Heat over moderate heat until sugar dissolves, then bring to a boil. Stir in pecans.
  • Spread mixture on lined sheet pan and bake until coating is bubbling and golden brown, about 10 minutes.
  • Cool completely on pan on a rack.
  • Coarsely chop candied pecans.
  • For filling:
  • While cookie-cakes are baking, beat cream cheese, butter, and salt in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add confectioners' sugar and bourbon and mix on low speed until smooth.
  • Chill filling until firm enough to hold its shape when spread, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Assemble whoopie pies:
  • Spread 1 heaping tablespoon of filling each on flat side of half the cooled cookie-cakes, then top with other half of cookie-cakes. If necessary, chill whoopie pies just long enough to firm up filling again, about 30 minutes.
  • Gently press pecans onto filling around middle of each whoopie pie to help them adhere to filling.

Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield 12 whoopie pies

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of kosher salt
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup canned pure pumpkin
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt

Steps:

  • Make the cookies: Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper (or use 2 baking sheets and bake the cookies in batches). Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Using a stand mixer, beat the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then the buttermilk and vanilla. Whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Drop 8 scoops of batter, about 2 tablespoons each, onto each prepared baking sheet, spacing them 3 inches apart. Bake until the edges are set but the cookies are still soft, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool 2 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks and let cool completely.
  • Make the filling: Beat the cream cheese and butter in a small bowl with a mixer until smooth. Slowly beat in the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Add the pumpkin, cinnamon and salt and beat until smooth.
  • To assemble the whoopie pies, spread a heaping tablespoonful of filling on the flat side of a cookie and sandwich with another cookie. Repeat with the remaining cookies.

PUMPKIN WHOOPIE PIES



Pumpkin Whoopie Pies image

I spotted these on Seriouseats.com this week and couldn't resist (they're originally from the bakery Baked). We enjoyed them at our office Halloween party. Recommendation: Eat them fresh -- they lose their punch when they sit overnight in the fridge and can get too wet. Expect a denser, cake-like cookie and not the usual fluffy chocolate whoopie pie. To up the orange color, maybe mix in some food coloring to the icing or add colored sugar to the edges.

Time 35m

Yield 24 large cookie sandwiches, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups all-purpose flour

3 cups chilled pumpkin puree
2 eggs (large ones)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups confectioners' sugar

  • In a separate bowl, whisk the brown sugar and oil together until combined.

  • Add the eggs and vanilla and whisk until combined. (You may need to trade to a spatula here unless you have a large, sturdy whisk.).
  • Sprinkle the flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture a half-cup at a time and whisk until completely combined. Do this until all flour is added and combined.
  • Use a small ice cream scoop or a large spoon to drop heaping tablespoons of the dough onto prepared baking sheets, about one inch apart.
  • Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the cookies are just starting to crack on top and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cookie comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool completely on the pan (or move them to a wire rack to reuse the sheet) while you make the filling.
  • To make the filling, sift the confectioners' sugar into a medium bowl and set aside.
  • In another bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer until it's completely smooth, with no visible lumps.
  • Add the cream cheese and beat until combined.
  • Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla and beat until smooth. Don't overmix the filling or it will lose its structure.
  • To assemble the cookies, turn one cooled cookies upside down so the flat side facing up.
  • Use an ice cream scoop or a tablespoon to drop a large dollop of filling onto the flat side of the cookie.
  • Place another cookie, flat side down, on top of the filling.
  • Press down slightly so that the filling spreads to the edges of the cookie.

VEGAN PUMPKIN WHOOPIE PIES



Vegan Pumpkin Whoopie Pies image

Whoopie pies are pretty expensive at the vegan bakery in my town, so I scrounged around and found two good-looking recipes on two different blogs. The first blog said that the result was tasty, but the texture wasn't spongy enough. So I used the filling recipe from there and found the cake recipe on another blog. The result is fantastic. NOTES: (1) The brown sugar is hard to blend in really well when it's clumpy, and so is the flour when the wet and dry ingredients come together. An electric mixer can probably fix that problem. (2) The recommended brands in the US for the egg replacer, vegan cream cheese and vegan butter, respectively, are Ener-G, Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese and Earth Balance. (3) As the first reviewer noted, these spongy pies are prone to both dry out fast and take on moisture. I wrapped mine individually in Saran wrap, but a more natural solution is to store them with a piece of stale bread, or just gather together a bunch of people and eat them in one go!

  • 3. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper (or a silpat) and drop batter by heaping tablespoons onto the cookie sheet - 3 inches apart. Bake for 15 minutes or until slightly golden around the edges.
  • 4. Remove from parchment and cool on wire rack. Once cooled, sandwich them together with the filling. Keep refrigerated. For easy serving - place each whoopie on a flattened out cupcake liner. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • To make perfectly round whoopie pies, use a 1/4-cup ice cream scoop to drop the batter onto the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake the whoopie pies until the edges are set and the tops are just beginning to brown, about 10-12 minutes.
  • Let the whoopie pies cool completely on the baking sheets before filling them.
  • For a neater filling, use a piping bag fitted with a large round tip to spread the filling between the whoopie pies.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can also spread the filling between the whoopie pies using a knife or spoon.
  • Serve the whoopie pies immediately, or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
