Do you have dessert every night after supper? A wise woman once told me "a meal isn't complete without something sweet." Those sound like pretty delicious words to live by! Between all the fresh-baked cookies, crumbly muffins, delicious pies and frosted cakes, we have so many choices when it comes to how to end a meal. I'm not a very skilled baker, so most of the time I take a little help from the store or turn to a no-bake dessert when it comes to sweet treats, but I'm sure even I could manage these 32 whoopie pie recipes to give my boys a little something extra special any night of the week!

The fact we will be celebrating Valentine's Day at home this year doesn't change much for us. It's the way we've been doing it since our oldest was small. I like to make the day a fun family event, and normally cook something special for us to all enjoy. So a little something extraordinary to end the meal with is a must. If you are also planning a fun Valentine's celebration in your own kitchen, launch the gallery to see some of the most delectable whoopie pies around!
What Is A Whoopie Pie?
A whoopie pie is traditionally two soft chocolate cake rounds, filled with buttercream frosting and marshmallow fluff. They are meant to be hand-held for the perfect bite! They are beloved in the New England and Pennsylvania areas of the U.S., but have really become popular coast to coast lately. Some say the Amish actually created them with leftover cake and frosting; and when the men would find one in their lunch box, would exclaim "whoopie," giving them their hilarious name.
In this collection, you will find every kind of whoopie pie from the traditional chocolate variety to ones appropriate for almost every holiday. The red velvet ones are so pretty and color-ready for Valentine's Day! There are bright green mint ones for when St. Patty's day rolls around. The candy corn whoopie pies are too cute, and just begging to be bookmarked for next fall. Plus, there are some fantastic unique flavors like lavender, chocolate salted caramel, apple cider and peanut butter and jelly whoopie pies too! I even managed to find a keto variety made with zucchini!
If you've never made a whoopie pie yourself, you are in good company because neither have I! But I am sure with these yummy, and fairly simple recipes we could whip up a batch in no time!
