Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 3 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup salted butter softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cup packed 100% canned pure pumpkin puree
  • Filling:
  • 1 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup salted butter softened
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 8 oz container marshmallow fluff

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking pans with parchment or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
  • In a medium-size mixing bowl, use a whisk to sift together flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a separate mixing bowl use an electric mixer to cream together butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar with vanilla extract. Beat on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes until fluffy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add canned pumpkin puree, mix to combine.
  • Lower the speed of the mixer and gradually add the dry ingredients. Stop and scrape the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat until fully moistened.
  • Using a 2 Tbsp or a small ice cream scoop to divide the dough onto the sheet pans. Leave at least 2-inches between to allow for spreading. Bake for 10 minutes. Cool on pan for 5 minutes then remove to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Filling: Using an electric mixer, beat together cream cheese, butter and vanilla on medium-high speed until combined. Lower the speed of the mixer and gradually add powdered sugar. Beat in marshmallow fluff at the end, just until smooth.
  • Divide cream cheese filling between whoopie pies and sandwich together. (You can use an icing spatula or a piping bag to pipe the filling.)
  • Store in an airtight container chilled for up to 1 week. Place wax paper between if stacking.
