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

Love the post, love the whoopie pies and love the electric eel you! Okay and even the non electric eel you.
Hi Shelly, creepy lurker here. I read a (large) handful of baking blogs but don’t often comment. I myself adore baking but don’t have a blog of my own. Needless to say, my name never shows up all cutesy-link-like (major comment deterrent) and I feel a wee bit like a stalker when I do bother to comment. That being said, I always read what you have to say. I find that people’s stories are just as worth-while as the recipes – especially yours! Jogging in jeans… I’m just saying. HI-larious business.
P.S. It’s funny to read some of the comments of this particular post to see just how many people didn’t read IT either 😉
I know, right!?
I am thinking right now after reading your page that you need a super long break from Sugar and this page, because something went haywire with your electric system…*HUGS*
I’m one of those people who always reads every word but doesn’t really comment. I think you’re hilarious, but not quite to the extent that I’d like you to graze my boob. You might shock me, what with you being electric and all.
I always read everything- I love your recipes but I love your words more!!!!!
First of all, I’m glad you’re not electric. Showering would suck.
Secondl, I’m pregnant and I want these. Now they are stuck in my head, they will never leave until I have eaten them. I guess I have a mission!
“if you leave a comment asking me where I bought a particular item that I have linked to 40 times in said post.” THAT made me laugh.
I’m guilty of reading and not commenting. I love reading your blog; you have a great sense of humor and your recipes are great. I made a copy of the the s’mores whoopie pies…definitely going to make this. Keep writing because we are reading.
I had to make a whole new pin board because of you!
OMGoodness! These look delicious! Man, just seeing them is making me want to go camping! Or go in the kitchen in the comfort of my dry warm kitchen as opposed ot the wet rainy outside and just making me these!!!
