These whoopie pies are what dreams are made of; soft, chocolate-y, and paleo. Does it get any better than that?! In this recipe we'll be making moist chocolate cakes with fluffy vanilla frosting sandwiched between. It's the perfect way to kickoff a sweet summer season!
Ingredients
For the Cakes:
- 2 ¾ cup almond flour
- ⅔ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup + 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted and cooled
- 2 medium eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ cup maple syrup
For the Filling:
- 1 container vanilla frosting of choice I like the Simple Mills brand
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients (first 5 ingredients).
- Then mix in the wet ingredients one by one, until the dough is smooth.
- Use a cookie scoop to form 16 - 18 small cookies (should be 8 - 10 total whoopie pies) depending on how big your cookie scoop is.
- Bake 11-12 minutes.
- These must cool COMPLETELY so the frosting spreads on easily.
- Spread the frosting on the cakes and form them into sandwiches.
- Serve, and enjoy!
