Because of the negative reviews, I didn't use the recipe for the cookie, I just bought a choc cake mix, and added 1/3C oil, 2 eggs, and 3/4C Water at 375 for 10 min and they were perfect, I did however use the filling, because I don't like eating (or have my kids eating) shortening that's found in most whoopie pie recipes, despite reviews to the contrary, the filling is rich and delicious, and needs no liquid at all as long as you are using room temp butter. I am giving it four stars for the filling alone.
The kids each gave me a strange look after they took a bite. They weren't horrible but I probably ever make them again. Thanks anyway Kay;)

Cookie needs baking soda/powder. Appropriate for hockey pucks.
SOMETHING WAS DEFINATELY MISSING FROM THIS RECIPE.THEY CAME OUT FLAT AS A PANCAKE AND THE FLAVOR WAS NOT GOOD.
I am sorry to say it but this recipe had some downs. The whoopie pies came out flatter than a pancake- they really needed baking powder. Also the icing was delicious but because it was so thick it didn't stick properly to the cookie part. I had to end up throwing it all out. I am really sorry though!!!
My family nearly died laughing when I showed them these cookies! Flat as paper and the filling was in need of moisture of some type!
If a something can be too sweet this is it.
Kay is right...no one could resist these!
I should have read the reviews before I made this one...they were FLAT!..and tasteless.
