Is it a pie? Is it a cookie? Is it a cake? You won’t even care once you take a bite of these awesome choco-licious treats! And who can resist a sweet, gooey marshmallow filling? Makes 10 Whoopie Pies
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon Gefen Vanilla Extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, such as Glicks
1/2 cup Gefen Cocoa Powder or other unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup marshmallow fluff
1/2 cup Gefen Confectioners’ Sugar, sifted
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon Gefen Vanilla Extract
In a bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until blended, about one minute. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until combined. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Sift the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt into a separate bowl, then add to the butter mixture. Mix on low speed just until blended. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until the dough is firm, about two hours.
Position two racks in the oven so that they are evenly spaced and preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two cookie sheets with Gefen Parchment Paper.
Moisten your hands with water, scoop up a tablespoonful of the dough, and roll the dough between your palms into a ball. Place the ball on a prepared cookie sheet. Repeat with the rest of the dough, evenly spacing the balls on the cookie sheets and flattening them a little. You should have 20 balls.
Bake the cookies until puffed and slightly firm, eight to ten minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Let the cookies cool for five minutes, then use a metal spatula to move them directly to wire racks. Let cool.
In a bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the marshmallow creme, confectioner’s sugar, butter, and vanilla on medium speed until smooth.
Turn half of the cookies bottom side up. Use an icing spatula to spread a dollop of the filling on the surface of each upside-down cookie. Top each with a second cookie, placing the flat side onto the filling. Serve right away.
