VANILLA WHOOPIE PIES WITH RASPBERRY CREAM FILLING

• 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!!! :-)

MINI CHOCOLATE WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sift flour, cocoa, baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt into a medium bowl.
• Beat shortening, sugars, and butter with a mixer on high speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add egg, and beat until mixture is pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
• Reduce speed to low. Mix in flour mixture in 2 additions, alternating with milk and vanilla, beginning and ending with flour.
• Drop mounds of dough (about 2 teaspoons each) onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing each 2 inches apart. Bake until cookies spring back when lightly touched with a finger, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool on sheets set on wire racks for 10 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks, and let cool completely.
• Transfer whipped ganache to a disposable pastry bag, and snip a 1/2-inch opening. Pipe ganache (2 to 2 1/2 teaspoons each) onto flat sides of half the cookies. Sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing gently.
