A while back I was on Dorie Greenspan's blog and one of her posts talked about how whoopie pies have become as trendy in France as macarons are here. Never in a million years would I have foreseen that. Since I've never made whoopie pies before I figured now is as good a time as any to try. I wanted to see for myself what all the French fuss was about.
I used a great recipe from Cook's Country
for these whoopie pies. I was pleasantly surprised that their version
wasn't sickeningly sweet and actually reminded me of Hostess' Suzy Q's. After one bite I can see why the Frenchies
are crazy about these chocolate cake/cookies!
I'm gifting these across cyberspace to one of my besties who is celebrating her birthday this week.
