Whoopie pies are a classic comfort treat that feels just like a childhood memory. These ones are special because they feature that iconic chocolate and cream flavor combination everyone loves in an Oreo cookie.

My favorite trick for getting these perfect is to make sure your cookie rounds are about the same size. It makes sandwiching them with the frosting so much easier and they look beautiful on a serving platter.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup softened butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened (for filling)
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

  3. 3

    In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. 4

    Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

  5. 5

    Slowly add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, and stir until just combined.

  6. 6

    Drop rounded tablespoons of batter onto your prepared baking sheets, leaving a little room for them to spread.

  7. 7

    Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the tops spring back when touched, then let them cool completely on a wire rack.

  8. 8

    For the filling, beat the softened butter until creamy, then gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and heavy cream.

  9. 9

    Whip the filling until it is light and airy.

  10. 10

    Spread a generous amount of filling on the flat side of one cookie and press another cookie on top to create a sandwich.

💡 Tips

Store these in an airtight container in the fridge to keep the cream filling nice and firm. They taste even better the next day after the flavors have had time to settle together. You can also wrap them individually in plastic wrap for an easy grab and go snack.
