To continue on my post from yesterday I wanted to share with you what I baked for the witches All Hollow Eve tea party.

PUMPKIN WHOOPIE PIES

I was looking for a new pumpkin recipe and came across one at Martha Stewart. I wanted to share the recipe this week so that you can bake these moist and tasty treats for Halloween. Matt Lewis was a guest on Martha's show. Matt is one of the owners of Baked Bakery in Brooklyn and also in Charleston, S.C. Please visit Martha Stewart HERE to find the printed recipe along with a step by step video in two parts.

The recipe calls for making 12 whoopie pies. I opted to make them smaller as they are very rich. Do not hold back on the amount of spices the recipe calls for. It sounds like a lot of spice but honestly these little cookies really punch your taste buds with tons of pumpkin flavor. The texture is moist and a cross between a cake and a muffin. It is important for you to leave the finished cookies in the fridge for a few hours so that the flavors can meld together. They even had a bit more flavor the next day. After that I can't say because these little pumpkin whoopie pies never made it past a day in a half at our house.

MANGIA!
