Chocolate Peanut Butter Whoopie Pies

I decided to take traditional Whoopie Pies up a notch and swapped out the classic creme filling for an easy peanut butter frosting.

Craziness, I know! But, is there anything better than the combination of chocolate and peanut butter? I didn’t think so.

Made with healthy fats from avocado oil and ground flaxseed, these Chocolate Peanut Butter Whoopie Pies came out rich, decadent, and perfectly moist. They’re the perfect bite-sized dessert!

Plus, they’re keto-friendly which means they have to be good for you, right? That’s what I’m sticking to, anyway.

To make this recipe, turn your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and combine the ground flax with hot water. Stir, incorporate the mixture into a large bowl with the cake mix and oil, and set it in the fridge.

Once the oven has preheated, scoop 10-12 cookie mounds onto a prepared baking sheet. Flatten the cookies slightly, and bake them for 10-12 minutes. While the cookies are baking, prepare the frosting by whisking the frosting and peanut butter together.

Then, once the cookies have cooled, use a piping bag (or ziplock with the end snipped off) to pipe the frosting onto half the cookies. Use the other half to complete the sandwiches, and enjoy!

*hot water ensures the ground flax will thicken quickly. You can use cold water but you’ll need to let the mixture sit for about 5-10 minutes to create the proper texture.
