I was a little late with this cake. I saw everyone’s posts for last weekend’s Heavenly Cakes project and just couldn’t resist making it myself. It looked so good, and I love Amaretto, and I knew I already had some blanched almonds in the freezer, so what could go wrong, right? All I would need to pick up was the seedless raspberry jam.

Thursday, October 29th, 2009Pumpkin Whoopie Pies
Thursday, October 29th, 2009I noticed this recipe on the blog of one of the other heavenly cake bakers, and couldn’t resist. The recipe is apparently called “Pumpkin Cookie Cakes”, but I know better. These may not be chocolate with a shortening/icing sugar frosting filling, but they’re definitely Whoopie Pies. I grew up in New Brunswick, which is similar to Maine in terms of our fondness for Whoopie Pies, so they’re one of my favourite treats. Just down the block from the building that housed most of my classes during undergrad at UNB was The Goody Shop, which was a little bakery famous for their Whoopie Pies. I really miss Fredericton sometimes.
