Peanut Butter/Cookie Dough Stuffed Whoopie Pies

Comments (2) ↓
Come morning I almost forgot I was destined to bake this evening. I have a user group tomorrow night with a group of people who develop with expression engine (the cms behind the blog and many other wonderful sites). Apparently they know I like baking, so I promised to bring treats to the next get-together.

I asked for suggestions... what goes well with pizza? Junk food of course. Isn't that what every pizza party entails? I found this delicious looking cookie on pinterest from these lovely ladies at Heat oven at 350º and decided to give it a whirl.

Of course, I didn't look close enough at the directions and only purchased half the amount of marshmallow creme I needed for the filling. I decided to improvise and make 1/2 cookie dough filling and 1/2 peanut butter filling. They are both yummy! You can double the amount of pb/powdered sugar/whipping cream or marshmallow creme and not divide the filling, but it makes it more fun if you do!

By the time my fiance arrived home from the store the baking was well underway and as I ushered him into the kitchen he gave me a strange, confused look and said, "Do you realize what's on your face?" Of course I hadn't the slightest idea and was more than a little amused to catch my reflection in the mirror and discover my latest adventure had spawned a unibrow. Not quite sure how that happened. haha. Somehow I always seem to make a giant disaster when I bake. I'm usually covered in flour and powdered sugar.
