As I shared to my Facebook friends and Instagram followers today, I took time off from working on my comprehensive exam to make whoopie pies for the first time.

Actually very simple and not overly time consuming, I followed this recipe. So thank you One Girl Cookies,’ the recipe was awesome! (And they look pretty cute, if I do say so myself).

I did deviate from the recipe a little, further simplifying by dropping the cakes/cookies onto the pan rather than piping them. I initially tried piping out of a plastic bag, but it got messy pretty quickly.

If you already possess piping abilities, than by all means go for it! I was just struggling and (thankfully) piping wasn’t necessary.

I also had a lot of cream cheese frosting leftover. I froze what remained and am looking forward to using the rest for another creation!
