Cream Cheese Filled Pumpkin Whoopie Pies

Thick, delicate pumpkin treats loaded up with tart cream cheddar icing make these Pumpkin Whoopie Pies an ideal fall treat.

Whoopie pies are a great treat here in Lancaster County. Bona fide ones are delectable, commonly chocolate with a cloud-like white filling. For those of you who have never had one, the sandwich treat part is fundamentally similar to eating cake, delicate and feathery, while the filling is sweet and puffy, similar to a marshmallow cloud. Whenever fouled up they are awful: thick, dry and dull.

I'm uncertain about whether it's heating cake hitter on a level treat sheet (whoopie pie molds are for miscreants) or utilizing crude eggs whites and shorting in the filling that is scaring, however I've never really endeavored to make customary whoopie pies.

Pumpkin gives all that it contacts a delicate, cake-like surface, including these pumpkin treats. In the wake of making them, I figured how impeccable they would be for pumpkin whoopie pies. I wasn't sufficiently fearless to attempt the conventional filling, however I adore cream cheddar matched with pumpkin, so I prepared a speedy cream cheddar icing to go between them.
