These Whoopie pies are filled with marshmallow greatness! They are super easy to make and your family or guests will love them!
Really…they are wicked good!
Jump to RecipeThere is much debate over where Whoopie pies first originated. Was it Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, or Pennsylvania? I have to say, I really don’t care! I just love them.
My mother made these for us when we were kids. I always loved them. The smell of the chocolate pies (cakes) baking brings joy and fond memories. Add the marshmallow filling and I can’t wait to get my hands on one!
