How to Make Whoopie Pies

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, cream together ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks) softened shortening and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
  4. Beat in 2 large egg whites, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  6. Stir in 1 cup buttermilk until the batter is smooth.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops spring back when lightly touched.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Once cooled, spread 2 teaspoons of marshmallow fluff or cream on the flat side of half of the cookies.
  11. Top with the remaining cookies to create Whoopie Pies.
  12. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
