Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Pumpkin puree
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Mini chocolate chips
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Whipping cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Beat in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the mini chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded dollops of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each dollop.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies spring back lightly when touched. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

To make the filling, beat the cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and whipping cream, and beat until fluffy and well combined.

Step 10

Once the cookies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of filling onto the bottom (flat side) of half the cookies. Top with the remaining cookies to form sandwiches.

Step 11

Store the whoopie pies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Let them come to room temperature before serving.
