This reminds me of old cooking shows, lots of witty talking and education. Loved it.

I don't care where they originated from I'm from lancaster county Pa and no offense to anyone but no one can make them like the little old Pa Dutch Ladies, I buy them from a farm stand owned by old order Mennonites and her woopie pies are the best! 😋😋😋

That cracked me up the first time I watched the episode, as did "give me whoopie or give me death".

I just had my first whoopie pie a few days ago when I flew to Maine for my college graduation! I’m from the west coast, never heard of this and never even been to the east coast before. My school alumni association gave me one as part of their welcome. It was a pumpkin whoopie pie with cream cheese filling, OMG! I’m hooked! I generally don’t like cake but this thing is amazing. My new favorite dessert! This reminds me that it’s important to travel within my own country and get to know it, its people, and what they like.

Loved it..!!!! Thanks for sharing how to make them since they are really expensive to buy them on the market. I plan to make some and ship them to my sons in NH and Cali. Both love Whoopie Pies...

I made these and I only ended up with 7 wafers (cakes?) and they were MASSIVE. Definitely recommend cutting down the portioning from 1/3 cup to something more like 3 tablespoons.

Thanks for these wonderful recipes

I love this recipe. Thank. You for showing me. How to make it💖💖

ATK really is the best place to learn new recipes and cooking techniques.

I will use this recipe. I can’t wait to try it!

If you really wanted to make the filling bright white, you could add a tiny drop of purple food coloring to it... I believe that is what they do in grocery stores to make that pure white butter cream frosting.

@Oracle428

@@ilovekpop3427 I don't think Cream of Tartar is used as a coloring agent...I copied this from a Cream of Tartar info page... it is more of a stabilizer than a colorant... "Cream of tartar is a stiffening agent for making icings and meringues. The same acidic powder that leavens during baking prevents the crystallization and hardening of the sugar when making icing for the cake. However, bakers also use cream of tartar to make hardened cake icing or the really hard royal icing." ... Using the tee-tiniest dab of violet/purple food coloring will make a yellowish-white frosting whiter because of light-spectrum science that I won't get into because this is way too long already (but for the same reason fluorescent light is whiter than incandescent light, which appears more yellow - and purple is the opposing color of yellow within the color spectrum - they essentially cancel each other out from a light-wave standpoint).

Thanks for sharing

Umm, I’ve had a kitchenaid mixer for over 25 years. It gets used. Every serious cook, and some not so, have one. That being said, you could use a hand mixer also. Or a wooden spoon. But it’s a workout to cream the butter and brown sugar to the correct consistency. I always made my younger brother do it.

That is a large whoopie pie - looks yummy! What is the diameter of the pie? Do you recommend a whoopie pie pan? Thanks

That filling would be awesome with some cream cheese.

I probably wouldn't have transferred the filling into another Bowl to chill I live alone and don't like doing dishes LOL

That is THE perfect whoopie!

@jimmyrrpage

That is not, nor will it ever be, buttermilk. Buttermilk is cultured with the Lactococcus Lactis family of bacteria, which are very far away from the citric acid in lemon juice. You'll get soured milk, but not buttermilk. The closest substitute for buttermilk is milk keffir, which is basically just another cultured milk. You *might* be able to get away with plain, unsweetened yogurt, but you want to use a looser yogurt in that case...

Two things to check. Make sure you use all purpose flour, not self rising. Don't over mix the batter. If you over mix, you will form too much gluten, giving the batter too much structure.

Should we make sure it's ...... "incorporated"?

PA all the way Pa Dutch & Amish

A tiny tiny drop of purple food coloring will help whiten that filling up for the people who want whiter filling.

I thought I read “how to make the most expensive Whoopi’s pies”.

I just made these and they are good but there's a major flaw in the process. DO NOT refrigerate your filling before you place it between the cookies. It gets too hard and when you put the two sides together it will crack your cookies and they will start to fall apart. Instead, make the filling and scoop some directly onto the cookies and put them together. I have no idea why they thought it should be chilled first because as you can see in the video, they do this and it cracks the cookies right on camera.

“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭3:9‬ ‭NIV‬ ROMANS 10:9-11 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame” Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭19:10‬ ‭ God wants us to believe in His One and Only Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, who died for our sins :D When we truly believe in our hearts that Jesus is the Son of God, who died for our sins so we could have eternal life with God, we are saved from the eternal fire and have eternal life in Christ Jesus!! 💖 May God bless you all ~

An electric hand mixer is a good alternative to a stand mixer, but a stand mixer is really going to be beneficial for a lot of baking for many people.
