Pumpkin Whoopie Pies
My friend Judy recently shared her recipe for Pumpkin Whoopie Pies. It is a perfect Fall treat. Judy is an amazing woman who puts family and faith first. She also enjoys cooking and baking with her mother and grandchildren. Judy is retired now and spends more time doing the things she loves, like making these sweet fall treats.
It is the season to be baking and enjoying the delicious flavors of Fall. And that, of course, includes pumpkin treats and desserts. These Pumpkin Whoopie Pies are filled with cinnamon and spice and everything nice, including a rich, cream cheese frosting for the filling. Invite your family to make them with you. Baking desserts and making memories, there’s nothing better.
