Chocolate Peanut Butter Buttercream Whoopie Pies
What does the “Whoopie?” dance look like? It varies from person to person but just shake it, add a smile and keep shaking it.
I’ve already talked about my love for Whoopie Pies from Amish Country that bring back so many yummy memories. Last month I baked some Pumpkin Whoopie Pies that were a hit so I decided I’m going to spend some creating more Whoopie Pies recipes for you!
I have Holiday ideas for them, I have spicy ideas for them, I have rainbow ideas for them – you just wait. Until then, let’s get personal with these Chocolate and Peanut Butter beauties.
