Chocolate Raspberry Whoopie Pies
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
-
Drop rounded tablespoons of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly touched. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the raspberry jam and powdered sugar until smooth.
-
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the raspberry jam mixture.
-
Spread a generous dollop of the raspberry cream filling onto the flat side of one cookie, then sandwich it with another cookie. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
-
Garnish with fresh raspberries and dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
