This reminds me of old cooking shows, lots of witty talking and education. Loved it.
Made these for my wife today as a surprise. She’s from Maine and she approves! And being a total disaster in the kitchen usually they weren’t to difficult for me to put together. They are delicious and very filling.
Did they end up sticking to your fingers later on?
Whoopie pies didn't come from Maine.
They came from the Amish in PA
@@nadanalia3000 I made them today and after 3 hours covered they stuck to my hands.
ATK really is the best place to learn new recipes and cooking techniques.
FINALLY! This was my 3rd attempt at making whoopie pies and your recipe and techniques are the only ones that worked!! I didn’t realize how BIG they are supposed to be as mine kept coming out small and tall instead of big and round. They are delicious! Thank you for this great tutorial!
Same here. This method will be my 3rd attempt!
I don't care where they originated from I'm from lancaster county Pa and no offense to anyone but no one can make them like the little old Pa Dutch Ladies, I buy them from a farm stand owned by old order Mennonites and her woopie pies are the best! 😋😋😋
Cathy Weidman, I was raised in Lancaster too and I agree! I don't know what all they put in them, but I'd bet there was lard and not butter. And they were great.
@@nadanalia3000 Nothing like shortening and sugar lol!
My family is also from Lancaster. It's 100% because you're supposed to use shortening instead of butter lol.
That is where they came from actually. I don't live in Lancaster, but at the Bloomsburg festival I always make sure to get some from the stands
Lard baby
I like this recipe! Butter, Brown sugar, & buttermilk always make things better, and the butter in the filling...excellent!
i` Agree, Lol
I have been watching you both for years! Love the chemistry of the two of you....or should I say humor you two are awesome. And I love your recipes.....and this one I am going to make this weekend! HURRAY!
My Mom made fantastic whoopie pies, and this is nothing like her recipe. IMHO, the best filling is an old fashioned cooked filling. That's the traditional filling for this native Mainah!
I have heard of the "cooked filling" do share.
I just had my first whoopie pie a few days ago when I flew to Maine for my college graduation! I’m from the west coast, never heard of this and never even been to the east coast before. My school alumni association gave me one as part of their welcome. It was a pumpkin whoopie pie with cream cheese filling, OMG! I’m hooked! I generally don’t like cake but this thing is amazing. My new favorite dessert! This reminds me that it’s important to travel within my own country and get to know it, its people, and what they like.
"Jimmy Hoffa is in the divot." I love you guys!
That cracked me up the first time I watched the episode, as did "give me whoopie or give me death".
I made these and I only ended up with 7 wafers (cakes?) and they were MASSIVE. Definitely recommend cutting down the portioning from 1/3 cup to something more like 3 tablespoons.
Even if they are making something I don’t like I still have to watch because they are so entertaining.
I've been watching this show since day. One actually me and my ex went to a live episode back in the early 2000s
I love this recipe. Thank. You for showing me. How to make it💖💖
Loved it..!!!! Thanks for sharing how to make them since they are really expensive to buy them on the market. I plan to make some and ship them to my sons in NH and Cali. Both love Whoopie Pies...
I will definitely have to try this recipe. I love your mixer. My old KitchenAid is on its last legs. Your mixer doesn't have an angry, grinding sound like mine does.
I saw a RUclips video where a lady said the same thing was wrong with hers. Turns out needed a cleaning and a reoiling.
Adriana Torres Great suggestion, thank you.
Thanks for these wonderful recipes
The Whoopie Pie is the official state bird and the official state flower of Maine.
If you really wanted to make the filling bright white, you could add a tiny drop of purple food coloring to it... I believe that is what they do in grocery stores to make that pure white butter cream frosting.
Actually its called Cream of Tartar that is used to keep that really white color
@@ilovekpop3427 I don't think Cream of Tartar is used as a coloring agent...I copied this from a Cream of Tartar info page... it is more of a stabilizer than a colorant... "Cream of tartar is a stiffening agent for making icings and meringues. The same acidic powder that leavens during baking prevents the crystallization and hardening of the sugar when making icing for the cake. However, bakers also use cream of tartar to make hardened cake icing or the really hard royal icing." ... Using the tee-tiniest dab of violet/purple food coloring will make a yellowish-white frosting whiter because of light-spectrum science that I won't get into because this is way too long already (but for the same reason fluorescent light is whiter than incandescent light, which appears more yellow - and purple is the opposing color of yellow within the color spectrum - they essentially cancel each other out from a light-wave standpoint).
I will use this recipe. I can’t wait to try it!
Love this recipe. You always choose authenticity. Thank you. Do you have a video recipe for Black Forest Cake?
Look it up smarty👀
Well I just bought a package of these last night at Whole Foods for almost $7.00 for only 4 . Definitely worth making these at home , it’s easy Peary.
That filling would be awesome with some cream cheese.
That is a large whoopie pie - looks yummy! What is the diameter of the pie? Do you recommend a whoopie pie pan? Thanks
Any tips on how these will bake at high altitude and baked in a convection oven? Thanks !
As a native of Salem MA., now in Palm Springs CA. why not Crisco in the filling???? That's how my mom made them. I've used the Fluff recipe that now uses butter, but we prefer the shortening version better.
The HETH NAZI'S KINDA PUT AND WND TO MANY OLD FASHIONED FOODS! I PREFER THE BUTTER VERSION BUT NOT BECAUSE OF HEALTH BENEFITS! I HAVE HAD WHOOPIE PIES MADE IN WATERVILLE,(Oakland) Me. That were as big as a dinner plate...My favorite that they made at the little restaurant was....Peanut Butter filling!
AGREED!
Those whoopie pies are looking great and must be so delicious too.
They’re called **Gobs** !!
in some parts of Pennsylvania they are called Gobs. Western areas
reCAPTCHA pt.2 raised on GOBS
Playing with Kitty Cat someday i will try their 👆🏼👆🏼 *gob* recipe 😆
Way too many missing ingredients right now aHaa
Thanks for sharing
I usually buy Whoopie Pies from my grocery store but I think that they are using a different recipe. Maybe one weekend I'll make these.
I love them whoopie pies with a class ice cold milk.
Yay Whoopi’s pies!🎉
Jimmy Hoffa joke was worth RUclips existing.
shortening is more authentic and freezes better than butter
Why do Bridget and Julia always seem like they hate each other? Like their chemistry never seems like banter ...
damn those look fire
I probably wouldn't have transferred the filling into another Bowl to chill I live alone and don't like doing dishes LOL
Moody's Diner in Waldoboro, Maine has the best whoopie pies in the world. So there, PA!!!!!!
PA all the way Pa Dutch & Amish
We used to also dust them with powdered sugar.
I have to get my wife to make some thanks
This is my favorite sweet.
Umm, I’ve had a kitchenaid mixer for over 25 years. It gets used. Every serious cook, and some not so, have one. That being said, you could use a hand mixer also. Or a wooden spoon. But it’s a workout to cream the butter and brown sugar to the correct consistency. I always made my younger brother do it.
Would these chocolate layers work for ice cream sandwiches? I'm looking for something softer than a cookie.
Yes
Can you use Sweetex shortening in place of the butter to make this a shelf stable product? Would I need to add anything to it?
If you Whip ur Butter till it’s Super light and Fluffy for a few minutes.. You Frosting should turn out More White. 😊
That is THE perfect whoopie!
Ok to use milk with lemon juice for buttermilk?
That is not, nor will it ever be, buttermilk. Buttermilk is cultured with the Lactococcus Lactis family of bacteria, which are very far away from the citric acid in lemon juice. You'll get soured milk, but not buttermilk.
The closest substitute for buttermilk is milk keffir, which is basically just another cultured milk. You *might* be able to get away with plain, unsweetened yogurt, but you want to use a looser yogurt in that case...
I haven't made whoopie pies but I nearly always use the milk and vinegar/lemon juice substitution for my great grandmother's chocolate buttermilk cake recipe and its always been delicious.
I think the filling would be great as a nice little dip with some chocolate cookies to curb that sweet tooth.
Whatever did happen to Chris Kimball ??
Thank you.
@johnnyquest870 Tankew !!
Can you make a video on other flavors of Whoopi’s pies
Honest question, how the heck do you accurately measure marshmallow fluff?
You don’t😂
Lol! 😆
Why aren't sites, recipes, videos & such not taken down when they are not accessible anymore? This is a bummer & now I must look @ making someone else's Whoopies😊
You've made a sandwich cookie, not a whoopie pie. :( (from central PA) All the good ones I've ever had were cake-like with something more like light frosting in the middle, never anything marshmallow fluff-related!
Hi I love this please récipe in spanish 😍😍🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪
What I can do to make the filling more thick
Filling I use is marshmallow fluff confectionery sugar vanilla and shortening not butter. If you want that old fashion taste it's got to be shortening
I've never heard of using marshmallow fluff in the filling before
I lived in Pennsylvania for 8 years and then we moved to North Carolina and I asked people where I could get Whoopie Pies and everyone here was like “tf are you talking about?” Literally so I had to learn how to make them bc NC doesn’t have them
Should we make sure it's ...... "incorporated"?
Did I miss the heat setting on the oven or was that left out on purpose
I would to have recipe whoppie pie
it looks chewy. is it chewy? like do you need a glass of milk next to you, basically, when you're eating this? or can we add an egg yolk and some oil or something and make it a bit fudgier or is that definitely not ok please help I'm still new to making nice food..
not chewy. this recipe is almost identical to the one Wilton has on their site. this one holds its shape, perfect to hold the cream. probably a cross between cake and brownie.
How can I make a funfetti whoopie pie for my kiddos? Leave out the cocoa and add more flour?
Could you double this recipe to make 12?
NEVER double a recipe when baking always just make two batters
My grandma is rolling in her grave about now, fooling around with the whoopie pie recipe is a mortal sin
@Jeff, the God of Biscuits well, she's been dead for a while, so that's pretty easy
@@dwightmansburden7722 What was wrong with this recipe? Do you mind sharing granny's?
I just made these and they are good but there's a major flaw in the process. DO NOT refrigerate your filling before you place it between the cookies. It gets too hard and when you put the two sides together it will crack your cookies and they will start to fall apart. Instead, make the filling and scoop some directly onto the cookies and put them together. I have no idea why they thought it should be chilled first because as you can see in the video, they do this and it cracks the cookies right on camera.
Edit. These aren't that great. I followed the recipe exactly. Very dry and disappointing.
@@vcrcooking seems a lot of people disagree with you
"Jimmy Hoffa's in the divot."
OK, but the heavy butter taste in the filling isn't great.
hi
I tried the recipe but my woopie pies rose too might. What did I do wrong 🤷🏻♀️
Two things to check.
Make sure you use all purpose flour, not self rising.
Don't over mix the batter. If you over mix, you will form too much gluten, giving the batter too much structure.
A tiny tiny drop of purple food coloring will help whiten that filling up for the people who want whiter filling.
Like to have recipe
Usually love their stuff, but they missed on this one.
Why?
Use "black cocoa"
Yes, it's a thing
Oooooh..... 🤤
How to make marshmallow fluff?
Sold in jars at the grocery store. I have seen recipes for making it from scratch, but the jarred will be fine with these, and less of a hassle.
Invented in the Appalchian Souht. Got and RC cola? (Say it right "appa latch un")
We pronounce it apple-ay-chin in these parts.
@@joeymama4666 Yes and it is ignorant.

I thought I read “how to make the most expensive Whoopi’s pies”.
why do I have to make an account just to get a recipe???
That's a moon pie
I miss Chris
Those ladies are cute
“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”
2 Peter 3:9 NIV
ROMANS 10:9-11 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame”
Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.””
Luke 19:10
God wants us to believe in His One and Only Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, who died for our sins :D When we truly believe in our hearts that Jesus is the Son of God, who died for our sins so we could have eternal life with God, we are saved from the eternal fire and have eternal life in Christ Jesus!! 💖 May God bless you all ~
Today is sanctity of Life Sunday. Gods heart. Child sacrifice takes place and christians need to care. Judgement begins at the house of God.
You need a Whoopie Pie, sister...
Vegetable shortening is for barbarians. Would a neutral-tasting leaf lard or rendered suet tallow be a decent substitute for the butter, if butter is unavailable for some reason?
It’s a cookie cake, there’s nothing pie about it.
Are you speaking on Sanctity of Life Sunday for the unborn most innocent? Are you making a plea for them? IF christians don't who will??
Looks tasty but diabetics need insulin after watching. Be warned. 🙄
You're supposed to fill it with real whip cream, that's what Italians do.
They have no idea how to make proper whoopie pie batter. You don't use buttermilk and you also don't use butter - just oil.
Every recipe I've seen uses buttermilk, and either shortening or butter but never oil...
that filling is disgusting
Recipes like this one are ludicrous. To make it, would have to spend hundreds of dollars to buy a standing mixer which would very seldom be used. Looks like a great recipe but very impractical for the average viewer.
I'm willing to bet a dollar or two that the average viewer already has a stand mixer, I have two
@@kennethyoung9032
Me too. I have a good one and a cheap one, but a stand mixer isn't necessarily required to make this anyway.
An electric hand mixer is a good alternative to a stand mixer, but a stand mixer is really going to be beneficial for a lot of baking for many people. There is over 4 minutes of beating there, and doing it by hand will probably mean more time for the same result. Most people cannot/will not beat that long.
Joseph Nardone this comment is ridiculous you don’t need a stand mixer to make these. almost any recipe that uses a stand mixer can use an electric hand mixer instead. anyone who bakes on a regular basis probably has either a stand or hand mixer
Perhaps you have arms and a wooden spoon? Or maybe a $15 handmixer?
