OMG! I grew up eating whoopie pies! I am in shock! I have not heard that name since child hood till NOW! I thought my parent's were so weird for making those and making me eat them :) These are VERY popular in the northern part of the US. My mom's family is Dutch and my step dad's family are Jewish, both are from northern Indiana. I LOVE whoopie pies!
I've never had whoopie pies before either but they look delicious. I have got to start making them. Love yours. Thanks for sharing on A Well-Seasoned Life's Sweet Indulgences Sunday.
