Whoopie Pie Directions

Prepare the Cookie Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.

Bake the Cookies
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Drop tablespoonfuls of the batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly touched. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.

Assemble the Whoopie Pies
Once the cookies have cooled, spread a generous amount of filling on the flat side of one cookie, then top with another cookie, flat side down. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
