Irresistible whoopie pies that are soft and delicious.
Ingredients:
  • 161.25 gm caster sugar
  • 375.00 ml plain flour
  • 42.90 gm Cocoa Powder
  • 2.50 gm bicarbonate of soda
  • 1.00 gm baking powder
  • 130.00 gm buttermilk
  • extra cocoa powder, to serve
  • 300g butter, softened
  • 337.50 gm icing sugar mixture, sifted
  • Food colouring (Pink, green and blue)
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced and line 4 large baking trays with baking paper. In a mixing bowl, cream together butter, sugar, and vanilla with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Then, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, bicarbonate of soda, and baking powder.
  • Alternate adding the flour mixture and buttermilk to the butter mixture, stirring until just combined.
  • Spoon level tablespoons of mixture onto trays lined with parchment paper, spacing them 5cm apart to allow for spreading. Bake one tray at a time for 8 to 10 minutes until puffed and fully cooked. Let them rest on the trays for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining trays.
  • Prepare vanilla frosting: With an electric mixer, whip butter, icing sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Separate frosting into 3 bowls. Add food coloring to each bowl to create pink, green, and blue frostings. Spread evenly between cakes to create 22 whoopie pies. Dust with cocoa powder before serving.
