(from the Baked Explorations cookbook)
This week's Club:BAKED recipe was Red Velvet Whoopie Pies. This was another first for me (I don't know how I made it so long without ever trying a whoopie pie, especially since they've been rivaling the cupcake for "cutest dessert" for some time now) and I couldn't have chosen a better recipe for my inaugural whoopie pie.
The cream cheese frosting was ridiculous! It was so good I seriously considered scrapping the whole whoopie pie idea and just eating the frosting by the spoonful. Luckily there was more than enough to fill the whoopie pies so I still got to eat the frosting by the spoonful ;)
My pies turned out a little orange-y - I forgot to make sure I had enough food coloring...whoops! Behold, Orange Velvet Whoopie Pies!
You can find the recipe for these on this week's host's blog, as well as in the Baked Explorations cookbook.
These look perfect!!!!!! I've never done whoopie pies either but it sounds like I really should!!!
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely make whoopie pies, they're so yummy! You should at least make the cream cheese frosting from this recipe, it's to die!
DeleteYours look great! I am starting to wonder if I didn't fill mine with enough cream cheese filling HEHE - that seriously was the best part!
ReplyDeleteThanks, yours looked like they had enough frosting to me ;) then again, you can never have too much of this frosting!
DeleteI love the color! It's really pretty!! Your whoopie pies look beautiful!

DeleteOh yum! I've never made these but now I think I should! Anything red (or orange) velvet sounds great to me! I love your photos, too!
