St. Patrick’s Day Whoopie Pies Recipe
I love whoopie pies, and if they’re specific to a holiday or celebration I love them even more. (I mean, pumpkin whoopie pies in the fall are the BEST, amIright?!) With St. Patrick’s Day coming up quickly, this would be a great weekend treat (and festive depending on the candy you use. Andes Mints would be really cute and tasty!)
What I love most about this recipe is that it uses a cake mix to start. It’s fairly easy for a beginner, or if you’re getting kids involved in the baking process.
Want to make it more St. Patrick’s Day themed? Try a green frosting instead of white.
What you need to make the Whoopie Pies:
1 box of Devil’s Food cake mix
1/2 Cup of Flour
Tub of White Icing
Crushed chocolate bars – or you even can use Andes Mints!
How to make your St. Patrick’s Day Whoopie Pies:
- Step one – Mix the Devil’s Food Cake Mix according to the box. Add 1 cup of flour to make the mixture a bit thicker.
- Step two – Drop spoonfuls of the mix on a cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart.
- Step three – Bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
- Step four – Let cool.
- Step five – Spread your desired amount of icing on one side of the whoopie pie and then top with another whoopie pie. You’ll want it to be a little thicker, so the candy will stick in the next step.
- Step six – Chop up the chocolate bars and place on a plate. Roll the sides of the whoopie pies in it, making sure the candy sticks to the icing.
