This was my first time making whoopie pies, an overall sucess I think!
The big thing that I did was I actually made these pumpkin- cocoa whoopie pies by adding between 1/4-1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder and a handful of white sugar. The cookies themselves came out very well. The texture reminded me so much of a devil dog, which I love!
The filling was a bit scary for me because I never have had much sucess with whipping, though it came out pretty well. The big dilemma that I ran into was that the filling was way, way, way too sweet for my preference. To balance it out I started adding some nutmeg, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. While I put the nutmeg away after about 1/4-1/2 teaspoon, I think that I might have added at least a tablespoon or two of cinnamon and about half as much pumpkin pie spice. The spices were still understated though helped balance out the sweetness a bit.
When I assembled I found that I ran out of filling with three sandwiches left. Maybe I used too much, though according to pictures of how much cream you see in the middle, I think I might have gone a little bit light.
Overall, good recipe!
