Today the girls and I dug back to our Pennsylvania roots and baked up a batch of delicious Pumpkin Whoopie Pies! Max mixed the batter. Maddie made the filling. And Bessie, our beloved family cow, kept time with her tail to the tune that Pa played on the fiddle. I'll leave it to you to figure out where I've embellishmed my story (just a little).
They're very simple to make and as Bessie will tell you, are "udderly" delicious. Still with me? Well, bless your heart! Here's a great article from the New York Times that demystifies the Whoopie Pie Phenomenon, plus and a downloadable copy of my recipe:

Oh my! That looks scrumptious! I have never heard of these treats before, and now I want to make me up a huge batch!
Jenn dear, are you trying to tempt me to put my apron on and add some girth to my hips!
Seriously, there is someone out there who is telling me to make some Woopie Pies because this is the second recipe I have found that makes me drool for them in 2 days time!!
Oh and the embellishment has to be Bessie cause I know your Pa just had to play the fiddle ;o)
Here you go with more pumpkin yummies! I may have to bake tomorrow.
You had me at Cream Cheese....yumm!!!

Problem is, I have ads and when I get a commentary such as this I have to be on the look out to block ads for things like condoms, etc...
The whoopie pies look absolutely delish!
You know the other day I was just thinking about a soft pumpkin cookie, and low and behold you made my dreams come true. I am printing this up, and putting it on the fridge, so I can make it ASAP!!
I've never even considered pumpkin whoopie pies. What a fantastic idea! Thanks for sharing.
I've never made a Whoopie (!) pie but this might just be the perfect recipe to start with! I'm so in the mood for pumpkin right now it just isn't fair. I totally stockpiled pumpkin when the stores filled their shelves. No running out for me!
These look AMAZING.... and I wanted to tell you there's a little message for you on my blog:

Woopie Pies!! They are the most fabulous things ever! My Aunt Carla has a cookie company, "Carla's Cookies", and she has us hooked! My Dad orders us a dozen for every occasion. If you are interested, check out her stuff! You won't be disappointed. She makes all kinds; special ones for holidays too.
