Ingredients

• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 cup butter at room temperature
• 2 cups white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups milk
• 0.75 cups butter at room temperature
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups marshmallow creme

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. 2 Whisk flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a bowl. Beat 1 cup butter and white sugar in a separate large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, until mixture is creamy. Beat eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract into butter mixture.
3. 3 Stir half the flour mixture into wet ingredients, followed by milk; stir remaining flour mixture into dough. Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto baking sheets. For 25 whoopie pies, make 50 cookies.
4. 4 Bake cookies in the preheated oven until set and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
5. 5 Beat 3/4 cup butter with confectioners' sugar in a bowl, using an electric mixer; beat 2 teaspoons vanilla extract and marshmallow creme into filling. Spread at least 1 teaspoon filling on the bottom of a cookie and top with a second cookie. Repeat with remaining cookies and filling.
