Cupcake fans cover your eyes. The most delicious photo of the beloved Whoopie Cake is featured in the NY Times Dining & Wine section.
As a kid I loved this gooey cake-like sandwich with a rich buttercream filling. Forget about watching the calories, this dessert is simply addictive. Call it a cake, cookie or pie--the Whoopie is dee-lish!
Yesterday I wrote a post about the lovely cupcake with the pretty frosting swirl. Cupcakes are elegant and pretty. Because I never had a Whoopie Pie as beautiful as the one pictured in the NYT, I always thought of the Whoopie Pie as a bit messy. A treat best enjoyed in the backyard and not at a wedding reception.
If you can't find a bakery near year--or you are having a Martha Stewart moment--check out the Whoopie Pies recipe at the NYT adapted from Zingerman's Bakehouse, Ann Arbor, Mich.
