Strawberries & cream whoopies

Strawberries & cream whoopies are delightful treats that combine the sweetness of strawberries with the creamy goodness of light sour cream, sandwiched between fluffy and moist cakes. This recipe is perfect for a family dessert or a festive party snack.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.
3. Add Vanilla and Egg: Beat in the vanilla extract and the egg until well combined.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the baking soda and the all-purpose white wheat flour.
5. Alternate Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in three parts, alternating with the buttermilk. Start and end with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
6. Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold in the diced strawberries with a spatula, being careful not to over-mix.
7. Scoop and Bake: Use a small cookie scoop or spoon to drop equal portions of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Each portion should be approximately 1-2 tablespoons of batter.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cool: Allow the whoopie pies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
1. Prepare the Filling: While the whoopie pies are cooling, prepare the cream filling. In a medium bowl, mix the light sour cream with a few tablespoons of powdered sugar (optional) for added sweetness. Stir until smooth and well combined.
1. Once the whoopie pies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of the sour cream filling on the flat side of half of the pies.
2. Sandwich: Top with another whoopie to create a sandwich, pressing gently to spread the filling evenly to the edges.
3. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately, or refrigerate for a firmer filling. Enjoy your delightful Strawberries & Cream Whoopies!

Tips:

- Ensure that all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start, as this will help them combine more smoothly.

- When chopping the strawberries, make sure they are cut into small, uniform pieces to ensure even distribution throughout the batter.

- Be careful not to overmix the batter once you add the flour. Overmixing can lead to tough cakes.

- Use a cookie scoop or spoon to ensure that each portion of batter is the same size, which helps them bake evenly.

- Let the cakes cool completely before adding the sour cream filling to prevent it from melting and becoming runny.

You now have a batch of delicious strawberries & cream whoopies to enjoy. These treats are best served fresh, but can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a couple of days. Share them with friends and family, and watch them disappear in no time!
