S’mores Whoopie Pies are 2 favorite sweet treats in one! It’s a graham soft cookie, filled with Marshmallow Buttercream and topped with melted chocolate. You will LOVE these!
I am a huge fan of turning pretty much every dessert into a S’mores version. I feel like I was born to do that actually, because my birthday is August 10th…
What does that mean?
Well, August 10th is NATIONAL S’MORES DAY!
So yeah. I’ve made S’mores Brownies, S’mores Cheesecake, S’mores in a Jar, S’mores Strawberries, Chocolate Chip Cookie Peanut Butter S’mores Bars…I could keep going and going…OR you could check out my S’mores Recipe Round Up.
Here’s what you do…
Crush some graham crackers up into a fine dust. You can use a rolling pin to smash them, or a blender or food processor.
You’ll need a cup and a half, which is about 9 full crackers smushed.
Mix up your batter.
It will look like this…
Drop the batter by the tablespoon onto a lined baking sheet.
They will look like this when they are all baked up…
Next you have to make them happen. Flip half of them over…
Then melt up your milk chocolate bars and give one side of your sandwich a schmear.
Don’t neglect the other side. Cover him with some marshmallow buttercream.
That’s it! Squish those two lovebirds together and you’ll get this…
Isn’t she gorgeous?

Hahaha, this was a great post – not too bratty, but just enough! 😉 It’s okay to vent a little sometimes, after all – it’s your blog! I definitely understand where you’re coming from, though I’m guilty of not always reading posts myself. I don’t however, not read posts, but then comment on them. I tend to be a lurker – following tons of blogs and posts and commenting rarely.
But here I am… trying new things. We’ll see if I can keep it up, because I do like the opportunity to take a moment to say:
These whoopie pies look DELICIOUS. Your blog is AMAZING. And now I have to go do homework.
xxx,

Lurker.. hilarious! Thanks for the comment today!
S’mores week is going strong! I think this one is my favorite!
You’re electric – – COOL 😉 lol. I never thought about the under water swimming where the fishy’s poop – – that makes me question swimming :S. I’ll have to stay on the sand and eat all the picnic goodies.
Can we talk about these whoopie pies – – YUUUUMMM!!
I come here because of your recipes I will often leave a short comment. I didn’t think it was right to just open your post and pin it without saying something!
I commented on yesterday’s post asking where you got the liners EVEN THOUGH I ALWAYS READ THE WHOLE THING!! and then i read today’s post, about how people ask you where you buy things when there are links, so I went back and looked at yesterday’s because i was SURE there was no way you linked to them and I missed it and……there it is. The link. Right before the recipe. Sigh. 🙂
HA! Yes, this post was completely and totally directed at you 😉
I love smores and I love that you made them, whoopie pie style. Those little whoopie cookies almost look like Nilla wafers. They look heavenly!
Kill me now with these! Eels kind of freak me out and have ever since I had a nightmare about them. Whenever I mention to people that I hate eels they think it’s because of The Princess Bride, but it’s not. It’s because of a dream (which, by the way, the odds of me actually remembering my dreams are about 1 in a million, cause I couldn’t tell you the last dream I remember).
I always read what you write! I don’t actually have much time for baking and experimenting and such, so most of the entertainment is reading your witty little musing. They’re almost always a hoot and a half.
I love your blog! You have the best recipes and I am totally living through your S’Mores recipes this week as I am on a diet and not allowed anything ooey, gooey, and delicious like your recipes look. But you better believe that I pinned them, started following you on Pinterest (I already follow you by reader), and will be making at least one of the recipes next week when I can have sugar again. Also I think it is pretty cool how you can power your whole house with your finger. 🙂
I was feeling bratty back to the point where I was just going to post “ooh, these look delicious” or something else inane, but such an obvious troll could be just as easily mistaken for another skimmer. Which I am not!
😛
hahahahaaa! well, thanks for the comment! mwah!
