These were very yummy! However, the cookie part didn't blow us away. FMIL makes whoopie pies, and they are her specialty. FH had a craving for some one night, so I found this and thought I'd give it a try. We both agree that the filling is the best either of us has ever had, but the cookie didn't sell us.

These were pretty good! They definitely tasted better the next day. We thought the filling was too sweet, but the cookie was just right. For some reason, the first day you could really taste the salt in the cookie, rather than it just enhancing the chocolate flavor, but by the next day it was less noticeable. I had a little problem with the dough. I followed the directions exactly, but the dough was more like cake batter, very loose and there was no way I could have rolled it into balls so I used a small scoop instead. It worked fine. I roughly measured the scoops to be an inch and a half but still the recipe only yielded me 16 total whoopie pies, which was no where near the 3 dozen I needed and thought I would get. I suppose if I make the scoops even smaller I would have had more, but then it would have been a mini-whoopie pie. I am going to keep the cookie portion of the recipe and see if I can figure out how to make a fluffier, less sweet filling. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Oh my these are habit forming. I used the mint option and added a drop of green food coloring to the filling. The cookies were made with 1/2 Splenda and 1/2 sugar. These are going to be the hit of my cookie tray.
