Studio 5 Gourmet Contributor Amy Richardson has been tracking down the trend.
Part of the appeal is the ability to customize flavors with whoopie pies. Amy’s top 5 flavor combinations are:
White Chocolate whoopie pies with Stawberry Creme
Banana whoopie pies with Chocolate Hazelnut Creme
Carrot Cake whoopie pies with Pineapple Creme
Boston Cream whoopie pies
Orange whoopie pies with Vanilla Creme
Although you can find mixes for whoopie pies, you can also make them from a basic cake mix:
