How To Make chocolate frosted whoopie pies
-
Step 1MIX TOGETHER DRY INGREDIENTS: flour, baking soda, salt, cocoa powder & sugar THEN ADD: egg, cooking oil, vanilla & milk Beat together just until blended.

Step 2Drop by tablespoon onto a cookie sheet (greased or lined with parchment paper). Leave room for spreading. Bake 12 minutes in 350 degree oven until edges are slightly firm. Let stand for 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. -
Step 3Using a mixer on medium-low speed, combine the ingredients for the filling. Spread the filling between two cookies. ***This mixture makes just enough filling to put a small amount on each pie. If you prefer to use more, you may wish to increase it the portions by 1/2 each.
