Irresistible whoopie pies - soft and delicious!
Ingredients:
  • 125g butter, softened
  • 161.25 gm caster sugar
  • 500.00 ml plain flour
  • 2.50 gm bicarbonate of soda
  • 1.00 gm baking powder
  • 3 tsp coconut essence
  • 130.00 gm buttermilk
  • 13.60 gm desiccated coconut
  • 6 egg yolks
  • 107.50 gm caster sugar
  • 100g butter, chopped
  • 131.25 gm lime juice
  • 1 tsp finely grated lime rind
Instructions:
  • First, preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced and line 4 large baking trays with baking paper. Then, using an electric mixer, whip together the butter and sugar until they are light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, making sure to beat well after each addition. While doing so, sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda, and baking powder into a large bowl.
  • Mix in half of the flour mixture to the butter mixture until combined. Stir in the coconut essence and half of the buttermilk until combined. Repeat with the remaining flour mixture and buttermilk until just combined.
  • Scoop level tablespoons of dough onto trays lined with parchment paper, spacing them 5cm apart. Top with a sprinkle of coconut. Bake one tray at a time in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes until cookies are puffed up and golden brown. Let them rest on the trays for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with the rest of the dough on the remaining trays.
  • Prepare the lime curd by whisking together the egg yolks and sugar until well combined in a heatproof bowl. Add the butter and lime juice, then place the bowl over a saucepan with simmering water. Continue to whisk the mixture for 15 to 18 minutes until it becomes thick and smooth. Remove from heat, stir in the lime rind, cover the surface with plastic wrap, let it cool for 10 minutes, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Enjoy!
  • Spread a generous 2 teaspoons of zesty lime curd between the cake layers to create 22 delightful whoopie pies. Enjoy right away for the best experience.
