The Great Whoopie Pie Recipe Quest - Episode 1

I tweaked this video a bit to get it to where I wanted it, so I'm reposting this shortened & new version : )
So, this series is all about trying different whoopie pie recipes in order to find the best one, which may end up being a combo of different recipes. I thought I would start with an authentic Amish recipe: ) And even better, one that was called "original".
This recipe is from a little Amish cookbook I bought in Lancaster from a farm stand at an Amish home, years ago. It's a fun little cookbook because it's quite authentic, especially in the wording : )
So, apparently "original whoopie pies" were not chocolate, at least not to the family who produced the cookbook. I do prefer chocolate pies, but these were good and I felt educated after making them : ) My middle son who is 17 and has been eating Amish based treats all his life, said he liked these better than the chocolate: )
