1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa (recommended: Dutch-processed)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sugar

Steps:

  • Set 2 racks in the middle and upper third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees. In a food processor or the bowl of an electric mixer, thoroughly mix together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar. While pulsing or on low speed, add the butter, then the egg. Process or beat until the dough is thoroughly blended and massed together. Drop rounded teaspoons of batter onto nonstick or parchment-lined cookie sheets at 2-inch intervals. With moistened fingers, round out the cookies and flatten them a little. Bake for 9 minutes, turning the pans once for even baking, until the cookies are set. Set the cookie sheets on a rack to cool.

Time 4h15m

Yield Serves 12 to 14

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon unbleached all-purpose flour
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted and cooled
2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into pieces, plus more for pan
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for pan
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 large eggs, room temperature
1/3 cup whole milk, room temperature
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped (2/3 cup)
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Filling: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In the bowl of a food processor, combine cream cheese and sugar; pulse to combine. Add egg, sour cream, and flour; process until smooth. Pulse in chocolate. (You should have 1 1/2 cups.)
  • Cake: Butter a 14-cup Bundt pan. Dust with flour, tapping out excess. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs lightly, then whisk in milk.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat sugar and vanilla seeds on low speed to combine. Add flour mixture; beat to combine, about 30 seconds. Continue beating while gradually adding butter until crumbly, about 3 minutes. Slowly add half of milk mixture; increase speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, about 1 minute. Slowly add remaining milk mixture, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Beat until incorporated, about 30 seconds more.
  • Dollop half of batter into pan, smoothing top with an offset spatula. Create a 1-inch-deep well around center with the back of a spoon. Spoon filling into ring (it will overflow -- that's okay), then dollop with remaining batter, spreading with spatula to cover. Bake until a tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool in pan on wire rack 15 minutes. Turn out onto rack; let cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours. Place cake on rack on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment.
  • Ganache Glaze: Place chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Heat cream and vanilla in a small pot until simmering; pour over chocolate and let stand 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth and chocolate has melted. Pour glaze over cake, allowing it to drip down sides. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes. Cake is best served the same day at room temperature, but can also be refrigerated, wrapped in plastic, up to 2 days.

VANILLA WHOOPIE PIES WITH RASPBERRY CREAM FILLING



Vanilla Whoopie Pies with Raspberry Cream Filling image

Yum! The whoopie pies are soft and moist. The cream inside is super yummy. It's sweet, but a tad tart from the raspberry jam. So good! We made the pies with 2 tbsp of batter as suggested and it made a larger whoopie pie. Great if you're sharing with someone or really in the mood for something sweet. You could easily cut it back...

Number Of Ingredients 16

VANILLA WHOOPIE PIE
4 large egg yolks
2/3 c milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 c granulated sugar
2 c all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 stick softened butter
RASPBERRY CREAM FILLING
6 Tbsp butter, softened
1 1/2 c powdered sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1 jar(s) marshmallow creme; 7oz
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 c seedless raspberry jam (or more to your taste)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325-350 degree depends on your oven. Grease your whoopie pan (I used hearts for Valentines Day) if you have them. You can also use a greased baking sheet.
  • 2. For whoopie pie, beat butter, egg yolks, and sugar together until creamy. Add vanilla and milk; mix.
  • 3. Add your dry ingredients and mix well.
  • 4. Fill wells of pan with 2 tbsp of batter or drop onto a cookie sheet, leaving about 2 inches between cakes.
  • 5. Bake for approx 9-11 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • 6. Let them cool on rack 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool completely on rack.
  • 7. For raspberry cream filling, in a mixing bowl, beat butter until creamy. Add sugar and salt to butter; mix well.
  • 8. Add marshmallow creme and vanilla; blend well.
  • 9. Then add your raspberry jam and mix again. I also added a tad of pink food coloring to make it a bit pinker.
  • 10. To assemble, take two pies and sandwich marshmallow creme/jam mixture inside. Hope you enjoy!!! :-)

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure the milk and cream are very cold before you start cooking. This will help the mixture to thicken properly.
  • Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly. This will prevent the mixture from curdling.
  • If you are using a cornstarch slurry, make sure to whisk it until it is smooth before adding it to the mixture. This will prevent lumps from forming.
  • Once the mixture has thickened, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly before using it.
  • If you are using the vanilla cream filling as a pie filling, make sure to let it cool completely before pouring it into the pie crust. This will prevent the filling from becoming runny.

Conclusion:

Vanilla cream filling is a versatile and delicious dessert that can be used in a variety of ways. It can be used as a pie filling, a cake filling, or even a dip for fruit. With its rich, creamy flavor and smooth texture, vanilla cream filling is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
