Whoopie pies seem to be everywhere these days. They are featured not only in bakeries across the country, but make it into the news and even have dedicated bakeware. Fortunately, you don’t need special equipment to bake these tasty desserts and introduce them to the one place you might not have seen them yet: your own home kitchen. I have some great whoopie pie recipes up on Baking Bites, including Banana Whoopie Pies and Salted Caramel Pumpkin Whoopie Pies, but today I’m giving away a copy of the cookbook Whoopie Pies. It’s a great little book that I’ve reviewed before, full of recipes classic and more contemporary whoopie pies, and mouthwatering photos to inspire you to bake!
To enter the contest, leave a comment with your favorite whoopie pie flavor below. It doesn’t have to be a flavor you’ve tried, either, so feel free to name any combination of cookie and cream filling that you can think of! I might even end up making some of the tastiest combinations into recipes for Baking Bites! The contest ends Sunday at midnight and the winner will be randomly selected from the entries. Don’t forget to fill in your e-mail on the comment form (it will not be public), as that is how I will contact the winner, and good luck!
Update: Contest is now closed. Congrats to Lauren of Sweet and Twisted on winning this giveaway!

March 17, 2011I like the peanut butter-chocolate ones I get from one of our food truck vendors, but I think it would be even more awesome if the cake parts were chocolate chocolate chip.

March 17, 2011i’ve seen recipes for a car bomb whoopie pie – a chocolate cake flavored with Guinness giving it a saltier flavor to the original. The filling–butter, sugar, Irish cream, and Irish whiskey. yum!

March 17, 2011This is kind of embarrassing but I’ve never had a whoopie pie! After flipping through some recipes for them that I saved, however, I think I’d have to go with a pumpkin and cream cheese combination.

March 17, 2011While I have only had chocolate with vanilla filling whoopie pies (and loved them intensely), I would like to try some kind of mocha whoopie pie. I kind of like the idea of a coffee cream/frosting sounds super exciting and the kind of thing I would like to try on other desserts as well.

March 17, 2011I read over the comments and they all sound good. I’d have to say the old tried-and-true can’t be beat but if I had to beat it I’d say a PB&chocolate combination. Maybe PB cookies with a nice chocolate filling.
