the novel cupcake?
These low-cal too fluffy cake cookie sandwiches are all of the rage these days. I late read an article (NY Times, maybe?) that claimed the Whoopie Pie was the novel cupcake. Wow. Bold statement!
I'm non certain close the novel cupcake, but I exercise similar that they are a to a greater extent than 'homey' rustic dessert that seems to bring a casual quality, every bit apposed to the 'pretty' cupcake alongside the swirls of icing. In fact, they powerfulness live on a to a greater extent than 'manly' cupcake option. Definitely a to a greater extent than transportable cupcake pick - fifty-fifty later years of catering too delivering cupcakes, it is ever i of my biggest struggles!
On the 'manly' note, Mike specifically requested these this calendar week later his starting fourth dimension Whoopie Pie experience piece visiting our friends inwards Maine final weekend. I knew he would dear them every bit his favorite cake combo is chocolate cake alongside white icing. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 Whoopie Pie fan was his destiny.
Like cupcakes the possibilities are endless. I had a friend post service of my facebook wall today that she had late heard of a Pumpkin Spice Whoopie Pie. I tin terminate solely icon that alongside fluffy cream cheese icing. Oh wow. I volition definitely live on experimenting alongside that this Fall.
While looking at unlike recipes online today, I institute many unlike looking whoopie pies. For me, a slap-up Whoopie is inwards the lightness too fluffiness of the cake AND the icing. The entire affair should sense of savor similar a fluffy, chocolate too cream cloud.
I am a huge fan of anything that starts alongside a cake mix. For closed to reason, it only seems to a greater extent than manageable if it starts alongside a box! The trial was great... too really quick to make. Highly, highly recommended. Oh, too what makes these fifty-fifty amend is they are slap-up to freeze, too. I'm going to lay them inwards the freezer to move out for Mike's lunches everyday.
Whoopie Pies
from a cake mix
1 chocolate cake mix
three eggs
1/2 loving cup of water
1/2 loving cup of vegetable oil
........
two sticks of butter, softened
3-4 cups of powdered sugar
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a mixer, combine cake mix, eggs, H2O too oil. Whip together for 2-3 minutes.
On a parchment paper* or Silpat lined baking sheet, scoop out batter into circular mounds. I used a modest H2O ice cream scoop that measured 1 2/3 inches inwards diameter. Use the dorsum of a spoon to circular out scoops of batter into perfect circles.
*I've switched to using pre-cut parchment sheets that stand upward for perfectly inwards a sail pan... they are a dream. They are non-stick too you lot tin terminate only throw them away later you lot piece of occupation them. I piece of occupation them for everything - cookies, roasting vegetables, meatballs, etc. I'm stocking them inwards my store every bit i of my favorite "essentials" - 200 sheets for $12... which should live on a twelvemonth supply. No to a greater extent than washing the silpat.
Bake for 8 minutes. Cool.
For the icing, inwards your mixer alongside the paddle attachment, whip together butter too carbohydrate (start alongside three cups of powdered sugar, too therefore add together to a greater extent than if necessary for thickness). Whip for v minutes until low-cal too fluffy (the extra fourth dimension makes all the difference!). Scoop into a pastry bag (you tin terminate purchase here, twenty bags for $12) alongside the halt cutting alongside a 1/2 inch opening.
To fill, pipage icing onto the bottom cookie (wrong side up), too therefore move past times alongside closed to other cookie (right side up).
You tin terminate brand whatever size you'd like, these ended upward beingness almost v inches!
*Again, I've switched to using pre-cut parchment sheets - i of my novel favorite things.
Whipping the butter too powdered carbohydrate for v minutes gives it a actually fluffy, airy quality.
Here is my pastry bag alongside the halt cutting off... also i of my favorite things. They become far therefore much easier to command rather than only spreading alongside a knife. I piece of occupation disposable therefore I don't bring to worry close washing it... I tin terminate only toss it. Usually I bring a piddling left inwards the bag, therefore I only lay the pocketbook inwards the refrigerator, too therefore larn it out anytime I ask a piddling icing. You tin terminate purchase them here.
Bottom half.
...and top. Looks similar a large fluffy oreo, right?! I retrieve I must become bring closed to other i correct similar a shot alongside a large drinking glass of milk.
