My Whoopie Pies from a nice Amish Country Store nearby are completely luscious & terrific. Rich & lots of chocolate flavor. Rich, sweet, thick frosting. Immensely tremendous.
Yum!! I grew up on Amish food and recipes. I am not Amish but my mom was so into the culture and we often visited Amish towns in Ohio and would buy furniture and Apple Butter and cheeses. My mother has been with the Lord since I was 15 but I wanna learn how to make these home cooked meals and recipes for my family. God bless
@@Skiskiski I do not have the precise answer for you but there have been Reform Anabaptist, Amish, and Mennonite communities for many decades. Some have adopted modern utilitarian methods. That's great for us so that we can see the age old recipes and use them for our own good. :)
Thank you for this recipe. I adore whoopie pies. My seasonal favorites are pumpkin. My husband sadly can't have chocolate as he's deathly allergic. But pumpkin is delicious. We go to Lancaster often and adore the area and surrounding areas. I'm looking forward to enjoying more of your videos
🥰🥰🥰 I love whoopie pies! I don’t understand why folks are complaining about the broken link, all you have to do is take a super easy step and search for the title of the book on the website and it pops right up! Happy to support an entrepreneur like her by purchasing the inexpensive cookbook.
"Shoo-fly whoopie pies"?!? That sounds absolutely decadent! Would LOVE to try those! I am from PA and cannot resist a fabulous and authentic shoo-fly pie! Great vid, thanks for the upload!
I was replying to her staying on task. Not a lot of fluff or unnecessary verbiage. Sorry if my comment to the blogger didn't meet with your assessment.
Hello, I downloaded your book and was reading that your dad was from Buzzards Bay. I live on the Cape not far from there. Blessings in the name of Jesus.
Misti King. Shunning is not exclusive to the Amish, it exists among the Mennonites as well. Every community has their own set of rules which are detrimental to their society.
Yo quiero aprender a prepararlos vivi en PA mi familia ama comoer woopie pies Mi favorito es de zucchini ❤ Mis hijos aman el de chocolate y mi esposo el de red velvet
Did I miss something? When did Amish start allowing electricity and photography and video taping??? What’s that about? I respect the Amish greatly, I’m just shocked to see this.
I love your video; very detailed instructions! I wanted to purchase the cookbook too, but the link says "product not found" 😞 I'll have to watch more of your recipes.🙏💖
Some Menonite's don't mind being filmed, but since it's the internet, she might also have just not told anyone since no one else seems to be on the show.
Instead of the shortening for the icing I would make a cream cheese icing, I'm not a fan of the shortening icing, I don't like the taste of the shortening in the icing.
In our Mennonite home we would never use shortening in icing. Margarine or butter in butter frosting. Cream cheese and butter for cream cheese frosting. Shortening for pastry makes a very flaky crust but I prefer shortening and butter for pastry or even lard. Not from store unless it is organic.
Homemade Whoopie Pies A classic homemade whoopie pie recipe for this favorite old-fashioned New England dessert. Soft chocolate cookies with Marshmallow Fluff cream filling never had it so good. SEE MORE: History of Whoopie Pies 75 Classic New England Foods Yield: 8 servings For the Cakes: Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 1/2 teaspoon table salt 1/2 cup vegetable shortening (or butter) 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup buttermilk 1 large egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Instructions Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment. Set aside. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined. Continue to mix on low speed while alternately adding the buttermilk and flour mixture. Stop to scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Spoon about 1/4-cup of batter roughly 3 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets (a scoop works well here). Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the tops are puffed and a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the cakes comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. For the Filling Ingredients 1 cup vegetable shortening (or butter) 2 cups powdered sugar 2 cups Marshmallow Fluff 2 teaspoons vanilla extract Instructions In a large bowl, blend together all of the ingredients until smooth. Spread the flat side of half the cakes with filling. Top with the remaining cakes to form a sandwich, then wrap individually in plastic wrap until ready to serve. This is the right way
Tip Tig, Traditional strict Amish use woodburning stoves just the same as everyone used 150 years ago? But as Misti King says, she's not part of a strict group.
Tami - if she know the chickens whose eggs she is using don't have salmonella, then there's no problem eating raw egg. How do you think homemade mayonnaise is made. Or Baked Alaska where the meringue is cooked on the very outside only so the ice cream is still frozen inside. Or steak tartare which is raw steak topped with a raw egg yolk. But if you are a professional baker you probably buy in your eggs from a wholesaler, and don't know the farm source, and particularly if they are intensively farmed, you're wise not to sell raw egg products made from that sort of egg.
Like SPRY or CRISCO like we used during WW2...It has it's own weird taste, is made with a whole lot of imatation crap you don't want in your stomach. Just use butter instead...it'll taste better.
You’re link doesn’t work. This is not helpful as you didn’t give any true recipe. You can remove some of your info and add the measurements as a true recipe 👍🏼
*Tami Gorman:* I don't quite agree with you about that - 'shortening' is vegetable fat, whereas 'lard' is animal fat which comes from a pig. But, I believe everything in moderation is OK - eating way too much of something is where you run into health problems.
But it's Hydrogenated vegetable fat, trans fatty acid, which is the worst sort as it raises the bad LDLs and lowers the good HDLs, regardless of what sort of oil it started out as. Lard would actually be less harmful. But why would you want to put all that greasiness into a biscuit? There are lots of other white fillings which would be much tastier, healthier and less greasy to eat.
@@SuperTamig The Amish followed Jakob Amman and the Mennonites followed Menno Simons. Amish is NOT a form of Mennonite. Amish have the ordnung and the Mennonites are supposed to be able to read the whole Bible, not just parts.
