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?

Notes
adapted from Whoopie Pies
literally LOLing. Getting stung by an electric eel can be quite the bittersweet experience! haha but i know exactly what you’re talking about. I get probably about 2 comments on average a day on blog and they’re basically the generic, “Yum!”….those somehow make me excited. There was even a point in time where I would approve spam comments just to make myself feel like a popular blogger #loser4life!
My husband would love these.
P.S.-Electricity would be a cool super power, but being able to see what is in the ocean so you don’t get touched by creepy things would be even better.
I LOVE the Whoopie Pies book! I bought it when it first came out, and have made most things in it. If you haven’t already tried the strawberry buttercream, it is the BEST. Use that on a vanilla bean whoopie, add sprinkles, and it’s just like a sprinkled donut. Side note, you’re hilarious.
I love your recipes so much I have had to buy more printer ink and I haven’t had this printer very long. Oh and thanks for the print button it makes it so much eaiser to print your recipes. I have even sent my daughter and friends to your website. Oh and I love the funny stories I always get a laugh and who doesn’t need that I know I do. So keep up the great work your awesome.
Sorry I don’t comment much. I read in Google Reader, and can’t comment directly. I l-o-v-e your work & totally trust your recipes. Awesome job!!
I must say I DO read your emails (don’t often make it to your site, but the emails….faithfully!) and enjoy the wit and sarcasm you portray! I think we could be gooooood friends. 😛 Seriously, I do love MOST of what you post – this week hasn’t been a favorite week of mine (you asked for honesty) only because I’m not a s’mores fan. I don’t understand it, either. I love graham crackers, toasted marshmallows (the ONLY way I like marshmallows) and there aren’t enough words to describe how much I love chocolate…but put them all together and yuck. Some things aren’t meant to be understood. HOWEVER, my 2 1/2 year old ray of sunshine, my granddaughter Layla, loves marshmallows, teddy grahams AND chocolate (that’s my girl!), so guess what I shall be throwing together before we babysit this weekend? And, if her mama doesn’t quite approve, so be it. I don’t give her a lot of junk food (THIS? junk food? Never in a million….) but this is something she will thoroughly enjoy while we watch her Dinosaur movies (she is hooked on “The Land Before Time” movies). So, thanks! And, I will try to comment more frequently – because we all want a happy treat creator. (Or whatever!)
Ok, so you obviously need some attention today. If you need to hear that everyone loves you and you are the awesomest person ever, then I will have to oblige, because…well… it’s true. Your the awesomest and I love this Whoopie pie, I will be making it soon!
I heart your blog and I read it RELIGIOUSLY. I love your writing style and you always, always, always make me laugh (winning!). I really look forward to your posts…and all of your sinfully amazing recipes. So please know that you’re never working in vain!
P.S. I adore That’s What We Said too!
I read what you write ( and laugh out loud!) I don’t comment, because your post about the spring pushup pops and your husband made me think you might be tapped into my world. Are all husbands like that? Or can you just read my mind now that you are electric?
Oh my hell. I totally had to click the link to read about the boob grazing. Ha! Totally get it. I wrote a great post about me licking powdered sugar off of hunky vampire fingers and one 2 people commented on that! ONLY 2! Seriously. That was a funny post. Oh well. I like what you have to say. It cracks me up! And I’m glad you’re not electric (although that would be cool) =o)
Oh yeah, and the whoopie pies look sick (that’s middle school lingo for awesome!!!)
