Yield Makes 13 sandwich cookies

Number Of Ingredients 20

Cake rounds:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons unsweetened (natural) cocoa powder (not Dutch process)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
2/3 cup well-shaken buttermilk
1 (1-ounce) bottle red food coloring (2 tablespoons)
Filling:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Make cake rounds:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in upper and lower third. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  • Beat butter, oil, and sugar with an electric mixer until combined well, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg, vanilla, and vinegar.
  • Reduce speed to low and alternately mix in flour and buttermilk in batches, beginning and ending with the flour until combined.
  • Add the red food coloring and mix on low speed until thoroughly combined.
  • Spoon 2 tablespoon mounds of batter 2-inches apart on lined baking sheets.
  • Bake, switching positions of baking sheets halfway through baking, until rounds are puffed and set, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Slide parchment with rounds onto wire racks to cool completely.
  • Make filling:
  • Beat together cream cheese, butter, lemon juice, vanilla, salt, and sugar until creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Spread about 2 tablespoons of filling on flat-side of half the rounds; top with remaining rounds, flat side down, to form whoopie pies.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my whoopie pies turned out dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

These whoopie pies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of red velvet cake, but these whoopie pies were delicious! The cream cheese filling was the perfect complement to the chocolatey cake.
