It doesn’t matter if they’re called Les Whoopies or whoopie pies, I’m a big fan. I used to work in a bakery where we made heaps of them (the chocolate and the pumpkin ones were my favorites), so I know my whoops. These are great– moist and chocolatey, like little devil’s food sandwiches, with peanut butter filling. I always like how good whoopee pie cakes are a little sticky on my fingers. Is that weird? I made these a few months ago actually, but now that I’m looking at the picture I took, I should go make them again!

For the recipe, see Baking Chez Moi by Dorie Greenspan. It’s also here. Don’t forget to check out the rest of the TWD Blogroll!

I am at the other end of the spectrum – I have never made whoopie pies, although I have eaten them a couple of times. Your whoopies look delish.

It is not weird to have sticky fingers:) There is always room for a whoopie pie.

I’ve never made whoopie pies, but I’ve enjoyed eating one (only once, I think). They seem like a cross between a cake and a cookie, so it makes sense that they’d be a bit sticky.

I’ve never made these so I can’t wait to give them a go. I love the “sticky on the fingers” factor too!
