As a Brit trying to find a recipe for these American cookies, the fact that you add in those conversions is soooo useful.

[@christianlegault6330]

I can't even imagine your house at Christmastime...the aroma of all those cookies in the house would be the perfect complement to the whole holiday season.

[@tlwilson1462]

My cookies looked good baking, and tasted good, but they were VERY crumbly. Can you tell me what I can do so the next ones do not come out that way?

[@tlwilson1462]

I want to try pumpkin whoppie pies next. But not until I get my recipe fixed right.

[@janishart5128]

@@tlwilson1462: It's a shame nobody answered you over the past two years! Here's my suggestion: If you followed Stephanie's recipe to the letter, is it possible you may have left them in the oven a little too long? Sometimes that causes the finished product to be dry.

[@tlwilson1462]

Janis Hart oh they were so awful I threw them out! Yes I guess she doesn’t answer post often. I made them again and they turned out the same way. My stove is kitchen aid, new. I just can’t figure out what is wrong. Used fresh ingredients, temperature is fine, didn’t scoop the flour into my cup, making sure I didn’t add too much flour to make them dry! My best friend is Menonite and she makes them often (pumpkin whoopie pies) and hers are so moist. Since my husband loves chocolate pies better, I was excited to try this recipe. But I haven’t gotten a moist whoopie pie yet! Have to keep at it I guess!

[@janishart5128]

@@tlwilson1462: Hi *tl Wilson,* that's unfortunate that nothing you've tried produces moist whoopie pies - it's so disappointing when our baking doesn't turn out! I'm not sure what else to suggest to you, so I've sent a post to Stephanie above, at *Joy of Baking* in the hopes that she can give you some tips as to why your whoopie pies aren't turning out. All the best to you, and I hope it eventually works out for you!! 😊

[@alysa1594]

This is by far the best whoopie pie recipe hands down! I’ve been using this recipe for years and it never disappoints! 🙌🏽

[@joyofbaking]

Baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) is different from baking powder. One teaspoon of baking powder is actually made from 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar, and 1/4 teaspoon cornstarch (corn flour). And yes, use 1/2 butter instead of 1/4 cup butter and 1/4 cup vegetable shortening.

[@Eeeriin]

I love that you also give the european measurements, makes it a lot easier for me :D Thanks!

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, you would use 1/2 cup butter (about 113 grams).

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, good idea.

[@plddc614]

I do not cook with shortening at all; what could I use as a substitute? Would coconut oil work?

[@alcidal]

you the best cook i ever see.thank you for sharing.

[@bazoute1]

You are fantastic, congratulations Sthephanie

[@MRMILO57]

Stephanie, you are fantastic... Fan from Australia.

[@EverythingFallsApart]

I made these last night. I ended up with way more filling than I actually needed but I just froze the leftover until I decide on a use for it. Otherwise they were really good. I used half Nestle's cocoa and half Hershey's Special Dark and they have a wonderful, deeply chocolaty flavor to them. I also liked that the pies were on the small side, perfectly sized for one serving. I'd make these again but would probably halve the amounts for the filling.

[@vunguyenmobil]

I had tried and it super yummy! I love it.

[@sawsanelfayoumi9084]

Thank you it is delicious.

[@adelynnlim587]

Looks fun to make! Will try this soon. :)

[@mikelhiza]

Hi Ms Stephanie....im a big fan of yours 😀.... Can i replace glucose instead of corn syrup.?

[@astridhaviland7998]

looks so good, thank you for sharing this video, can the dough be color and make them look like macaroons? I ask since the almond flour it's expensive, thank you.

[@sanaaelabbasi1744]

dank schön für gute Rezept miss Joy

[@jessiek3351]

Hello! Thanks for the recipe and it came out so delicious. Just wondering how to make the surface smooth not cracked? Thanks!

[@nikoloskaelena]

I just made them, and they are very tasty

[@AnaisMartignoni]

Stephanie, my name is Anaïs and I write to you from Switzerland ... Watching your video I've always wondered, but at the end eat all the sweets that prepare?

[@tatjanaostojic6008]

Wonderful. Can I use a piping bag for forming the cookies?

[@joyofbaking]

+Tatjana Ostojic Yes, you could do that.

[@tatjanaostojic6008]

Joy of Baking Thank you💜

[@damiensutherland7104]

What made me want to make whoopie pies where the Yankie Candle Whoopie pie scent. Lovely.

[@Mrjoeldsouza26]

Hi Stephanie, if I'm allergic to chocolates, is it possible to make the whoopie cookies non chocolatey?

[@NJ.654]

What brand of electric stand mixer do you use? Where did you buy it??

[@ayufainauisy]

Hi there i juz wanna noe if i can use this recipe and convert it into chocolate chips whoopie? And can i use cream cheese filling for this as well?

[@ViciouzMegZ]

I looked at the recipe on your website and looked at the section for substitutions. In this recipe there is both baking soda and baking powder. The Swedish translation is the same so, what do I do then? Then in the frosting you say you can use butter instead of the vegetable shortening does that men that I use 1/2 of butter instead of 1/4 of veg. shortening and 1/4 of butter?

[@julianamilad1055]

do I have to add the corn syrup ????

[@frnnd89]

Do You have a Carrot Cake version of a whoppie pie?

[@HazzanaAhlan]

hi stephanie, need ur help am planning to make these for an event and want them to be grey in colour is it possible. for that shall i just skip the cocoa powder and colour the batter after all mixed. Plz need your help :)

[@tavolo22]

it is a fat that is solid at room temperature. usually vegetable based, but by definition, can be animal fat such as lard. it is used in baking primarily to create a flaky product such as pie crust.

[@kelladehabermann2466]

Could I use golden syrup and solid coconut oil?

[@saniacauley5833]

do you mix the water with the butter milk if you don't use coffie

[@joydable]

its really helpful to convert the cups into grams most american recipes only come in cups

[@claudiaf6831]

do i absolutely have to use buttermilk or can i use something else?

[@rauofr]

Hi there,I tried the recipe .it taste delicious however they did not come out small & petite like your. I followed the recipe to the t but It came out quite big.help, where did I go wrong.

[@mk202]

If you look closely at the picture of her finished product, it's obvious that she actually baked hers in some kind of cupcake or muffin tins...maybe even a whoopie pie pan, so don't feel so bad. You can tell because her finished 'cookies' are rounded on top and then visibly cut in, showing signs of being formed in some kind of pan to hold their shape while baking. See the little air bubbles...?

[@SheryllQuesta]

Whoopie Pies are delish! I actually just did a video making Pumpkin Whoopie Pies with a creamy coconut filling. Yum!

[@tlwilson1462]

Sheryll Questa I would love to have that recipe if you don't mind sharing. Treva

[@angelasierra7240]

if you take out the cocoa powder, will the batter change to a vanilla batter?

[@IImajinxx]

What is shortening? I'm from Norway, and I don't know where to find it.

[@hajrajaved389]

you said that instead of using shortening i could use butter so that means i have to use 60 ml and 57 gram of butter in the vanilla cream?

[@felicetju]

How can I cover those with melted chocolate?

[@joyofbaking]

You could try it. That is not something I've ever done.

[@janishart5128]

*Joy of Baking:* Hi Stephanie, would you mind responding to *tl Wilson,* below. She's having problems getting her whoopie pies to turn out moist, and I'm not sure what else to suggest to her, so I thought maybe you could shed some light.

[@tlwilson1462]

Janis Hart thank you Janis. I will not give up on them. Lol

Janis Hart thank you. I try t be, and I love cooking food and baking.... treva. I love watching Stephanie. I gotten so many good recipes thru her channel.

[@janishart5128]

@@tlwilson1462: Yes, she really does present a LOT of excellent recipes, many of which I have made. Just a question - what is "treva"?!

[@joyofbaking]

The one thing you could try is to bake them a little less. Dryness is typically a sign of over baking.

[@TheJoester5000]

I first found out about woopie pies at school!

[@stevenweiler2613]

I've never had a whoopie pie I'd like to try one

[@CreativeWitty]

Can I use melted butter instead

[@Gabs17174]

Can I use marshmallow fluff for the frosting? Thanks

[@caitlinj1080]

yes

[@blabhblaja]

What can I use instead of light corn syrup? We don't have that in my country :(

[@MariaRivera-jv6yc]

agave syrup

[@hoangkhaithu]

thank you

Hi Stephanie need some help planning to make them for an event but want to make them in grey colour is that possible . For that shud I just skip the cocoa... need help plz .

[@cxjennyxx6047]

does it have to be unsweetened cocoa powder?

[@angelus656]

That's a De'Longui mixer, you can find it on their website. See if it's available in your country. On mine it's not! :(

[@profamal]

Living in Europe, here can I find light corn syrup? Can I replace it?

[@ChloboQ]

Thank you so much!:)

[@billiejothaokincaid]

i tried that recipe and my whoopies didnt taste like the way a whoopie pie should taste, but i did try the red velvet ones last week and they were great.

[@gabrielairene3582]

If i want to make a vanilla whoopie pie, can i just omit the cocoa powder and replace it with the same amount of sugar?

[@joyofbaking]

Gabriela Irene If you wanted to omit the cocoa powder, I would try replacing it with an equal amount of flour.

[@amberstone18]

Are you canadian mam?

[@modhi1366]

يمييييي لذيذه

can i use oil instead of butter?

+Fazza Sabli You can store these in the refrigerator for several days.

[@bcgylling]

Adjusted measurements for high altitude?

[@hoangkhaithu]

can I use honey instead?

[@joycelau699]

When you cool the whoopie pies did u put in the refrigerator or just leave it somewhere?

whats buttermilk ?

+Lavern Chandler did you use melted butter

[@bellinichan2005]

How can I keep them?

[@zierahnur]

what is whoopie pie?

[@ZainabAlAli94]

Some recipes use brown sugar instead of white what's the difference ?

[@fayeadrienedeleon1705]

if its same with the cookies, then brown sugar makes it soft and chewy, white sugar makes it crispy. that's what I know

[@KnorSC]

Where is the marshmallow fluff for the filling?

[@joyofbaking]

This recipe doesn’t call for marshmallow fluff.

[@KnorSC]

Joy of Baking recipe?

[@rafathama]

1) If I want vanilla whoopie pies, can I follow the same steps and ingredients but without the cocoa? 2) If I don't want the coffee, could I use the same amount of liquid all in buttermilk instead water?

[@beachbum0014]

I have the same question as your first one. Hopefully we get an answer =)

[@mlpchickennuggets7224]

its the exact samething as a macron?

[@chloer.3101]

MLP chicken nuggets no I think macron's are a bit crunchier

[@charmishah25]

Can you give me written recipes of this

[@joyofbaking]

There is a link to the written recipe in the first line of the description.

[@Anglynn74]

I've always used a non stick jelly donut mold tray to make the chocolate circles, makes them come out perfectly round, I fill it with devils food cake boxed mix. for filling I use cricso w/ powdered sugar or just betty crocker frosting.

[@annawieringa735]

I also made whoopie pies, you can find the video on my channel! 🍪🍓

[@angelinthedark5]

I think i would leave out the corn syrup, i liked the texture better before that was added.

[@gabrielairene3582]

I mean the same amount of flour

[@Jen6374]

the middle is Marshmellow fluff other then that its not right

[@joyofbaking]

Not sure what you mean by it's not right.

[@riverstone9005]

It's not marshmallow fluff. It has that taste though once it's done.

[@MyFondestMemories]

Stephanie’s filling is exactly what a traditional whoopie pie filling tastes like actually. It doesn’t call for marshmallow filling. These are perfection. You should try it.

[@world10sh]

Yes, Gabs17174

[@РашидовЭмирхан]

Есть кто русскоязычный

[@Jen6374]

Real Whoopie Pies have Crisco and powdered sugar in the middle I have no idea what she made that middle is toooooo runny

[@joyofbaking]

I don't think the filling is too runny. While I do use shortening and powdered sugar, I like the addition of butter, vanilla, and corn syrup. Of course, there are many recipes for the filling, some using Marshmallow Fluff. The filling recipe I use comes close to that flavor and texture.

[@Lisa-hc3uq]

@jen6374 Runny? What are you looking at? Her filling isn't runny. Whoopie pies do have different variations of fillings. Besides being a know it all, and rude, how about thanking Stephanie, who did the demonstration for us, who is a professional baker. Get over yourself.

[@thegamingpicklez]

lol i started making the icing before i realized i needed corn syrup.... uhhh lol and i put some blue food coloring in mine :3 lolz

[@TetukraBOA]

instead of Vanilla cream can I use marshmallow fluff?

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, you could do that.

[@PatrickLipsinic]

but I am talking about Gobs and not whoopie pies. ;)

that is the real thin Marshwellow fluff not frosting
