Red Velvet Whoopie Pies

Red Velvet anything is sure to grab my attention... I never quite understood all the hype until I tried a Red Velvet cupcake from Sprinkles... It was love at first bite!

These Red Velvet Whoopie Pies are a perfect treat for Valentine's day.

I used this recipe for the cookies and this one for the filling.

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and combine the liquid ingredients together per the recipe while microwaving the chocolate in a separate bowl:

In another bowl, mix together the dry ingredients:

Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to wet mixture (divide into 4 parts), incorporating each addition well before adding the next:

Finally, mix in the melted chocolate, then spoon batter onto baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes:

Cool cookies before assembling with the filling:

While the cookies are baking in the oven, mix together the butter, cream cheese and marshmallow creme to make filling:

Assemble cookies with a spoonful of filling each:

Now you can wrap them up as you please - refrigerate for at least a half hour before serving.
