Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and lightly grease a baking sheet. In a bowl or liquid measuring cup combine milk and vinegar and set aside.
- In a medium bowl whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves.
- In a large bowl cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Mix in molasses and milk and vinegar mixture.
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop scoops of cookie dough onto prepared baking sheet. Leave 2 inches between each cookie dough scoop. Bake until cookies are puffy and set, about 10-14 minutes. Repeat with remaining cookie dough and allow cookies to cool completely.
- Prepare the filling by creaming together butter and cream cheese until fluffy. Add powdered sugar and mix on high speed for 4-5 minutes. Mix in vanilla, cinnamon, and marshmallow cream. If needed to make a smooth and fluffy consistency, mix in 1-3 tablespoons milk.
- Make whoopie pies by spreading filling between two cookies. Serve immediately or store refrigerated in airtight container up to 3 days. Allow to come to room temperature before serving.
Notes
- Store in airtight container in fridge up to three days.
