Notes

  • Store any leftover chocolate whoopie pies in the refrigerator. You can either serve chilled or remove them from the fridge about 30 minutes before serving to allow them to come to room temperature. Cookies should be enjoyed within 5 days.
  • Stir constantly to make sure that the mixture doesn’t burn as you are mixing to create the chocolate paste.
  • Use a teaspoon measuring spoon to measure out the cookies to keep them about the same size.
  • Buttermilk can be made by combining 1 cup milk with 1 TBS either white vinegar or lemon juice. Combine and let sit for 10 minutes before using in the recipe. 
  • Freeze whoopie pies after baked by wrapping them each individually in plastic wrap then putting into a plastic bag so you can thaw them individually as well. Thaw in the fridge overnight.
