Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter (softened)
• 1 cups granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 0.5 cups whole milk
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.25 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted and slightly cooled)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

Using an electric mixer, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes).

Step 4

Beat in the vanilla extract and egg until well combined.

Step 5

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the whole milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.

Step 6

Scoop the batter onto the prepared baking sheets using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, spacing them about 2 inches apart. You should have approximately 16 mounds of batter.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 8

To make the filling, whip the heavy cream in a large bowl using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Sift in the confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder, and continue beating until stiff peaks form.

Step 9

Fold the melted, slightly cooled chocolate into the whipped cream mixture until evenly combined, creating a smooth chocolate filling.

Step 10

Pair the cooled cakes by size, and spread a generous layer of the chocolate filling onto the flat side of one cake. Top with the matching cake, flat side down, to form a sandwich.

Step 11

Repeat with the remaining cakes and filling.

Step 12

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Let the whoopie pies come to room temperature before serving for best texture.
