BAKERY STYLE WHOOPIE PIE CAKE



Bakery Style Whoopie Pie Cake image

I found this recipe on a website for parents. The original was for the actual Whoopie pies, but I am too lazy for all of that. I altered a little and made a cake out of it. It is awesome and so worth the work. Note: use real butter, makes it much better.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't miss anything.
  • Use Fresh Spices: Freshly ground spices will give your cake a more intense flavor. If you don't have fresh spices on hand, you can use store-bought spices, but be sure to use half the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the Cakes Until a Toothpick Inserted into the Center Comes Out Clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cakes are done baking.
  • Let the Cakes Cool Completely Before Filling Them: If you try to fill the cakes while they are still warm, the filling will melt and make a mess.
  • Chill the Cakes Before Serving: Chilling the cakes will help the filling set and make them easier to eat.

Conclusion:

Spice cake whoopie pies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. With the right ingredients and a little bit of patience, you can create these delightful treats that are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
