Between my husband, my children, and my grandchildren, it was as if I didn't make enough. I can assure you that they won't go to waste, and they didn't here at my house. My double batch left me with about 40 pies. This recipe makes about 36-40 halves or 18-20 complete pies. Once you achieve that, you know that your frosting will stay nicely inside your pies and have an enjoyable texture. What you are looking for at the end of whipping together your frosting is a knife to stand up in the middle. I don't consider this to be an exact science, like the baking part of this recipe. I use a clean spatula and scoop out what I think is a cup and a half. It's messy and sticky, and that's just too much mess for me. You heard that right, Marshmallow fluff does not lend itself well to measuring. Something I always do to make it easier for me is to eyeball the fluff.
I find by far the hardest part is measuring the fluff. Be sure to store the pies in the fridge as at room temperature on its own the maple cream will whither away to syrup. This is a delicious spread on its own and its quite possible to skip the whole filling recipe and just spread on some maple cream. The secret weapon to the whoopie pie filling is the maple cream that's added. Which is nice if you need to churn out a bunch, I was able to cook 24 halves in one batch. I made a double batch as have the luxury of a commercial oven in the sugarhouse. I like to cook them until they start to brown on the bottom edges and a finger touch leaves no indentation. Keep on eye on them, depending on the size spoon you use they may take less or more time to cook. When your oven is preheated, prepare the baking sheet and pop them in the oven for around ten to twelve minutes. The batter will be thicker than cake batter, but thinner than cookie batter. There is nothing easier to throw together in the baking world than the cake batter for a whoopie pie. The Pine Tree State will celebrate in June and the Keystone State will observe the sacred whoopie event in September. Yearly, festival goers can compete in a number of activities, from largest, most creative, to best tasting whoopie pie. This is something to remember if you find yourself on Jeopardy!, there is indeed a Whoopie Pie Festival, in not one, but both states. As a matter of fact, there is a book you can purchase to learn more about this historic state battle by Nancy Griffin, titled Making Whoopies: The Official Whoopie Pie Book. Whoopie Pie Festivals These two states have been battling for the ownership of the whoopie pie for decades, and it's quite well documented. Sadly, there are no records due to a fire that destroyed the bakery's records. The problem Maine has is that Pennsylvania wants proof. Mainers claim that the first whoopie pie was made in Lewiston, at Labadie's Bakery, in 1925. That's the story you'll believe if you are from Pennsylvania, and want to take ownership of inventing the first whoopie pie. When the boxes were opened at lunch time they exclaimed, "whoopie!" when they saw the sweet treats waiting to be eaten. As the story goes, Amish wives made the small cakes with leftover batter, then frosted and wrapped up the treats to put in their husband and children's lunch boxes.
One plausible story is from the state of Pennsylvania, that whoopie pies originated from the Amish community. You may have asked yourself how did something as simple as cake and frosting get a name like a Whoopie Pie? No one really knows for sure, but what we do know is that it likely originated here in the Northeast.
#MAPLE MADE FACEBOOF FULL#
I last made these a few weeks ago, over the 2021 maple production season and one of my boys stated, "Mom, this is what it's all about! Awesome!" They are wonderfully delicious, moist, gooey, and full of real Vermont maple flavor (no artificial flavors!). Maple whoopie pies are a favorite dessert among my family, and I'm positive it will be for your family too.
