Easy Homemade Whoopie Pies Recipe

Ingredients

• Reynolds KITCHENS® Parchment Paper with SmartGrid®
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.67 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 stick butter, softened
• 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup buttermilk
• White crystal sugar
• 0.75 stick unsalted butter, softened
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 (7.5 ounce) jar marshmallow cream (such as Marshmallow Fluff®)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• Reynolds KITCHENS® Quick Cut™ Plastic Wrap

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on high speed, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the flour mixture and buttermilk in alternating batches, starting and ending with the flour mixture.
3. Mix until the batter is smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of batter about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets, shaping them into footballs. Use the SmartGrid® lines for precise spacing.
4. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the tops are puffed and the cakes spring back lightly when touched. Transfer the whoopie pies to a wire rack to cool completely.
5. In a medium bowl, beat together butter, powdered sugar, marshmallow cream, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. This will make approximately 1 1/2 cups of filling. Spread a generous tablespoon of filling on the flat side of half the cooled cakes. Top with the remaining cakes to form sandwiches.
6. To decorate your whoopie pies to resemble footballs, cut two 15-inch pieces of Reynolds KITCHENS® Plastic Wrap and arrange them in a criss-cross pattern to form a large 'X'. Place the remaining frosting in the center of the 'X', gather the sides to form a ball, and carefully poke a small hole in the bottom to create a piping bag. Pipe football laces onto the tops of the whoopie pies. The thickness of the laces depends on the size of the hole you create.
