Mine cracked also...doesn't look as nice as the photo. Has this happened to anyone else or know why.
These are amazing. The cookies are moist and the filling is delicious. I did add a few drops of orange food coloring just to make the filling pop, but the pumpkin made it orange. I also added more powdered sugar to the filling as it was too sour tasting for my personal preference. I've gotten many rave reviews for these. Best served right out of the fridge!
I love this recipe! It always comes out so good and is very easy! I make mine gluten free by substituting a rice flour mix and adding a teaspoon of xantham gum..perfect!!
omg these were so good. they were really easy and really good. they didnt need any food coloring. the cakes itself were a little dry so i put them in a tupperware over night. i really recomend someone to make these
I was surprised but these really are super easy to make - and delicious! I would increase the amount of frosting however because I ran out. I don't think you need food coloring, the pumpkin in the frosting is enough.

I did not find these to be "mini" so I used a 1tsp to dish out the batter and cooked them for 7 minutes. Perfect! Also, if you want yours to turn out like the ones in the picture (all nice and halloween-y) you will need to add orange food coloring to the filling--I wish I had noticed before I made all of mine! Maybe I am just a novice baker, but I did not find these to be "super easy to whip up in no time" but they were fun to make! Now dishes...not as fun.
These were so much fun to make and were delicious! My cookies did crack on the tops, but I thought that gave them lots of character. Also, I wrapped the individual pies in saran wrap and stuck them in the freezer. They made for a wonderful quick treat!
I made these last night and they turned out fantastic. Super easy to whip up in no time. Really yummy- everyone gave them big thumbs up
Banana Whoopie Pies are on this website from the magazine.
Has anyone made these in a convection oven?
I just made the whoopie pies and they were easy to make and were very good. I am going to freeze some and see how they hold up when they come out of the freezer.
These are AWSOME....At first I wasn't sure if the pumpkin filing would overpower the chocolate taste, but it doesn't. It compliments the chocolate with a hint of creamy pumpkin. Everyone is asking for more!!! I am making more with each filling and freezing them for afterschool snacks or unexpected company.
Deffinately a keeper.

If you like spice cookies here is an idea. I box of spice cake mix, add 1 16 oz can of pumpkin pie filling and 1 bag of choc. chips. Mix first two ingrediants first and then add the chips. We love making these as small bite size cookies. They cook at 250 for aboug 18 minutes..till set. They are really yummy. If you are on weight watchers you can omit the choc. chips and then they are only 1 point per larger cookie, so you could eat 3-4 small ones :). Super yummy we love these.
Best of luck!
I would like to make these ahead of time for the holidays and freeze them. I would also like to do the same with the banana woopies has anyone done this?
I can picture this better with a gingerbread type cookie; wonder if just omitting cocoa and adding ground ginger would work. Grammababy
Cute video...my dream come true...working with Cookie Monster :)
Cracking is an indication of too much flour, the wrong flour or overworking the flour mix.
My baking has improved a lot since I switched to European cookbooks, where the flour is weighed.
Pumpkin and chocolate go great together. I make pumpkin bread with chocolate chips in them and it is delicious.
Does anyone know if the pumpkin or Banana whoopie pies can be made ahead and frozen.

I am not sure of the tase of chocholate and pumpkin together. Can anyone suggest a soft spice cookie recipe? laura.chapin@yahoo.com
In September's issue there is a banana woopie with vanilla cookie and banana filling. It's a bit easier because it's most likely things you have in your pantry...

These are fabulous. My husband begs me to make them, but I only do it for special things because they are more work than a regular cookie. I've made the filling with applesauce instead of pumpkin because I didn't want the pumpkin flavor (although that is still good) and omitted the nutmeg and cinnamon. You can make them vanilla, I think there's a different recipe on her site that has vanilla ones. Kids especially love this cookie!
Is there a way to make the cookies vanilla rather than chocolate? What sort of replacement would there be for the cocoa powder?
Wow! I can't wait to make these.
The filling would be great on warm homemade pumpkin bread. I use my banana nut bread recipe and change it a bit to make pumpkin bread.
I think this frosting/filling would be great on carrot cake, too
I made these for a halloween potluck. Everyone loved them and begged for the recipe!
I made these a few weeks ago and they came out perfectly. I didn`t have any problems with cracking. They tasted terrific!!!
I made these for Thanksgiving. Tasted really good, only problem was the pies were cracky looking. Once they were on the plate - I sprinkled confectionary sugar on top to hide the cracks.
