WICKED WHOOPIE PIES RECIPES

Steps:

• For the filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the confectioners' sugar, shortening, creme, vanilla, flour and milk. Whip together until fluffy, at least 10 minutes.
• For the pies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet with butter. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the butter, granulated sugar and shortening until fluffy, then add the eggs and vanilla.
• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda and salt, then set aside. In a small bowl, combine the vinegar and the milk.
• Add the milk mixture, cocoa and hot water to the bowl of the mixer, then add in the dry ingredients and mix until well blended.
• Using a 2-inch (number 16) ice cream scoop, scoop large, rounded spoonfuls of batter 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, then cool completely.
• Using the same size ice cream scoop, scoop the filling and spread it between two of the shells like a sandwich. Wrap the whoopie pies in waxed paper or plastic wrap, then serve.
