Banana Whoopie Pies for Valentine's Day



I know it's a bit late in the game to be making a sweet for your sweet, but these little heart shaped sweets are too good and too easy not to share.

Their adorable heart-shape is thanks to Wilton's Heart-Shaped Whoopie Pie Pan, but they work just as well if you pipe little mounds of batter onto a parchment lines baking-sheet.  Though I think these are a bit  cuter.

Whoopie Pies! & a visit to the King Arthur Flour Store



I tweated about these Whoopie Pies a week ago and I'm so sorry for the delay in getting them posted.  If you read my other blog No Reeats you'll know that I am back to work for a few weeks and have been insanely busy.  Regardless of that, I promise these fabulous little chocolate sandwiches fondly known as whoopie pies were definitely worth the wait AND just in time to make for your upcoming Superbowl party or even for your sweetheart for Valentines day.  

Over the holidays the Boy and I spent some time down in Boston.  On our way back to Toronto we made a little side trip at Mom & Dad's trailside condo in Killington.  As I was researching the weather and figuring out when to go, it dawned on me that we would be driving dangerously close to the King Arthur flour plant and store.  That I had spent so many years growing up and as an adult driving to Killington and never realized this seems crazy.  But I guess it's because up until I really got into baking a few years ago I had no idea what King Arthur Flour was, to be honest I could care less about any specific flour, just so long as I had what I needed to make a tray of brownies.

As I've gotten more into baking the brand King Arthur has come up more and more.  I'm specifically intrigued with their black cocoa. So much so that I asked for some for Christmas and was lucky enough to receive it.   I didn't use it in this recipe, but did use some other treats I bought on my trip.
