I recently learned that not everyone knows what a whoopie pie is. My Boston friends would be shocked, as we all grew up on the delicious treat. After living in the DC area, I found that many parts of the country, however, do not grow up eating whoopie pies. It really is a shame, considering how amazing they are. Whoopie pies are similar to a cookie/cake sandwich. Typically, they are made with chocolate cake as the “bread”, and white cake frosting for the crème filling. Many varieties of whoopie pies can be made, including these pumpkin whoopie pies with maple marshmallow filling.
