Pumpkin Whoopie Pies
Our Pumpkin Whoopie Pies are super moist, spiced perfectly, and very seasonal! You can eat the cookies without filling but we make a maple cream cheese filling which nicely compliments the flavor of the pumpkin spice cake.
Since they’re individual cakes, Whoopie Pies are perfect for sharing at office parties, family gatherings, feasts, and other social events. Everyone in our office loves this treat!

Refrigerator
Yes, these bars ought to be kept in the fridge!
