Whoopie!

Whoopie Pies

No, not the cushion.... and no, not the euphemism for sex used on The Newlywed Show. Whoopie as in Whoopie Pies. I don't think I've ever had an actual Whoopie Pie, but I've been seeing them pop up everywhere lately on baking blogs and in cooking magazines. I found this recipe from epicurious.com and decided to give it a try. They turned out pretty good overall... very messy and the filling needed to be a little thicker to stay put, but still rather tasty. They are reminiscent of a Hostess cupcake. And yes, I am aware they aren't technically a "cupcake" but since this is my blog, I can bake and post about whatever the hell I want! = )
