Yield Makes about 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cloves
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup safflower oil
3 cups solid-pack pumpkin puree, chilled
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Make the cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment or a nonstick baking mat.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk together sugar and oil until well combined. Add pumpkin puree, and whisk until combined. Whisk in eggs and vanilla. Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture; whisk until fully incorporated.
  • Drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Smooth tops with a wet fingertip. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until cookies just start to crack on top and a cake tester comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks, and let cookies cool completely.
  • Make the filling: With an electric mixer on medium-high, beat butter, cream, cocoa, and confectioners' sugar until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Spread filling (about 1 scant tablespoon) on flat side of half the cookies; sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing to adhere. (Whoopie pies are best eaten the same day but can be refrigerated in airtight containers overnight.)
