Sweet Treats
Whoopie Pies & Muffins
Whoopie Pies!Whoopie Pies are one of the great culinary traditions of the USA. Maine in New England claims the Whoopie Pie as its own, but it originated among the Pennsylvania Amish.
Whoopie Pies are two slices of soft chocolate cookie, made into a big dessert sandwich by a creamy filling. But that’s only the start of things – all sorts of whoopie recipes are made these days, from American staples such as pumpkin through salted caramel to orange cream cheese! So rather like our sponge cakes, you are free to create variations on a theme – and that’s just what we do.
Muffins are really easy to master – and again they open up a world of variations. Sweet or savoury, they make wonderful snacks or teatime cakes. You can add bran for a healthier heart, make seasonal simnel or Christmas muffins, chocolate or cheese (but not all at once!).
