Golden Oreo Whoopie Pies Food

WHOOPIE PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Make the cakes: Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. Line 2 baking pans with parchment paper.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg, and vanilla and mix until combined, then mix in buttermilk. Slowly add dry ingredients, and mix just until combined.
• Scoop mounds of batter, 1 and 1/2 tablespoons in size (I use this ice cream scoop), onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2-3 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops spring back when touched. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Make the filling: Place all ingredients in a large bowl and beat with a mixer until creamy and fluffy. If the filling is too stiff, you can add a little heavy cream or milk.
• Assemble the cookies: Spread filling on the flat side of half the cookies. Sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing down slightly so that the filling spreads to the edge of the cookies.
• Store in the fridge, well covered, for up to a week. Serve at room temperature.

CONFETTI WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• For the pies: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Mix together the cake mix, oil and eggs in a large bowl until combined. Stir in the sprinkles.
• Using a 2-tablespoon ice cream scoop, dollop 12 scoopfuls of batter on one of the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Repeat with the remaining baking sheet. Dampen your fingers with a little water; press and smooth the tops of each dollop so that they are flattened slightly and even on top. Bake until they are golden and springy to the touch, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool completely on the sheets.
• For the frosting: Meanwhile, beat the butter and marshmallow creme together in a bowl with an electric mixer until very fluffy. Add the vanilla and beat until combined. Slowly add the confectioners' sugar about 1/4 cup at a time, adding more until the mixture is properly stiff enough to hold its shape (see Cook's Note). Using the same (cleaned) scoop as the cookies, scoop the filling onto the flat side of one cookie, then top it with another cookie, flat-side down. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling. Pour the sprinkles into a low bowl or rimmed plate, then roll the sides of the filled cookies in the sprinkles until the exposed filling is coated. Serve immediately, or store refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

OREO WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• In a stand mixer, cream together the sugar, salt, butter, vanilla and egg.
• In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda and cocoa. Add this to the first mixture alternately with the water and buttermilk.
• Drop the batter by teaspoonfuls onto a greased non-stick cookie sheet. For easiest removal, line the cookie sheet with parchment paper. Bake the cookies at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 7-8 minutes. Watch them closely. If your cookie cakes are smaller than ours, they will bake faster. Set the cakes aside to cool on the pan until you can move them easily to a wire rack to cool completely.
• In a stand mixer, whip the softened butter and shortening on medium speed for 2-3 minutes. Add the vanilla and powdered sugar. Mix on low speed until the powdered sugar is all incorporated.
• Add in the heavy cream, one tablespoon at a time, and beat the frosting on medium speed until the frosting has reached the consistency that you like. (I used 6-7 tablespoons of cream).
• Add the Oreo cookies to the frosting, 3 at a time, and beat on medium-low speed until they are all broken up and blended in.
• Choose two whoopie pies that are about the same size. Spread the Oreo frosting between the two cakes. This should make about 10-15 whoopie pies, depending on the size you make the cakes.
• Store at room temperature in an airtight container.

EASY OREO WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line baking sheets with parchment paper. This is important for ensuring the sticky and moist whoopie pies do not stick to your pan after baking.
• In a medium bowl, whisk dry ingredients together with a wire whisk. Stir all purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until combined.
• In a large bowl, whisk granulated sugar, light brown sugar, room temperature egg, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and room temperature buttermilk. Mix until smooth.
• Carefully, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients before mixing with a wire whisk until smooth. The batter should be thick. Do not overmix, as mixing past when you see the dry ingredients disappear into the batter will create dense cake pieces. Pour 2 tablespoons of hot water into the batter and mix until smooth.
• Let the batter sit for 10 minutes at room temperature to allow the batter to gain structure and firm up.
• Divide the batter into 1-tablespoon-sized dollops on your prepared baking sheet. The dollops should be at least 2 inches apart because they will rise and spread as they bake.
• Bake the whoopie pies for 8-11 minutes until the tops are set and shiny and the centers spring back when quickly poked with your pointer finger.
• Allow the whoopie pies to cool on your baking sheet for at least 15 minutes before filling.
• In a large bowl with a hand mixer or in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat room temperature butter until smooth.
• Slowly add powdered sugar to the bowl and beat on medium speed until the frosting is smooth.
• Add marshmallow fluff to the frosting and beat on high speed until incorporated. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides and the bottom of the bowl before mixing again to ensure the frosting is combined.
• Add heavy whipping cream to your frosting and beat on high speed for at least 3 minutes. This creates a light, smooth, and velvety filling.
• Stir Oreo cookie crumbs into the frosting. If desired, transfer the Oreo filling to a piping bag or zippable plastic bag with the corner snipped off of it to create a makeshift piping bag.
• Top half of the cooled cake disks with Oreo filling. If possible, leave a small rim around the outside to prevent the frosting from spilling out.
• Top the frosted cake pieces with an unfrosted cake piece to create a cake sandwich.
• Store the whoopie pies in single layers or individually wrapped in cling wrap to prevent the whoopie pies from sticking to one another.

WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line baking trays with parchment. Mix flour, cocoa, bicarb, sugar and a pinch of salt. Whisk the egg, oil and buttermilk together, then mix into dry ingredients with 75ml boiling water. Spoon 20 spoonfuls onto trays, well spaced. Bake for 12 mins or until firm to touch, peel off trays. Cool.
• For the glaze, sift icing sugar and cocoa into a small pan. Gradually stir in cream followed by 100ml boiling water. Heat gently until syrupy.
• Sandwich 2 cakes together with the frosting, spoon over some glaze and decorate with sprinkles.
