How To Make pumpkin whoopie pies with maple cream cheese filling

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, and nutmeg. Set aside. In a seperate bowl, whisk the sugar (white), brown sugar, and the oil, and pumpkin until combined. Add the eggs and vanilla and whisk until combined. Gradually add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture and whisk until combined. Drop rounded, heaping Tablespoons full onto the prepared sheet, about 1" apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until cookies are just starting to crack on top and toothpick comes out clean. Cookies should be firm. Remove from the oven and cool.
