Pumpkin Whoopie Pies

September 22, 2014momstownRecipeNo comments
Fall is upon us and well when this time of year it is all about the pumpkin recipes!
Preparation Time:
Cooking Time:
Yield: 10
Description:

This is the first of our recipe blogs with guest blogger Sarah from Nurse loves Farmer. It is the first day of fall here and well with the changing seasons come thoughts of yummy baking and cozy outfits – well for me anyway! This is a great recipe combining 2 delicious flavors – pumpkin and cream cheese into a new favorite, the Pumpkin Whoopie Pie.

 

Ingredients:

Cookies:
2 cups Flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Baking Soda
2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
1/2 cup (1 stick) Butter, softened
1 1/4 cup Sugar
2 eggs, room temperature; lightly beaten
•1 cup pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 tsp Salt
Filling
4 oz Cream Cheese, room temperature
6 tbsp Butter, softened
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 cups Powdered (confectioner’s) Sugar

Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl.
  3. Beat butter and sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  4. Add eggs and beat well.
  5. Add pumpkin and vanilla; beat until smooth.
  6. Stir in flour mixture.
  7. Drop by tsp or using small cookie/ice cream scoop onto cookie sheets.
  8. Bake 10-13 minutes or until springy to touch.
  9. Cool on cookie sheets for 5 minutes, then wire racks.

Filling

  1. Beat cream cheese, butter, & vanilla on medium until fluffy.
  2. Gradually beat in sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Spread filling in between 2 cookies and store in refrigerator. I often use a piping bag, it's faster than spreading the filling on with a knife.
