Double Chocolate Whoopie Pies

My teen daughter Olivia has been in the kitchen baking again.

She took a break from her recent obsession, those utterly amazing Nutella Swirl Brownies.  She has made a half dozen times in the last few weeks.

Use the best quality cocoa powder you can find for this recipe.

Her latest triumph were these terrific whoopie pies based upon a favourite Canadian fudge sandwich cookie.   We’ve featured them before in our recipe for Homemade Fudgee-o Cookies.

These double chocolate whoopie pies are pretty easy to make. They would make a fun baking project with little kids. 

Great for after school snacks and lunchboxes too.

Thanks Claudette. Any guilt trips would be pretty hypocritical of me! LOL!
