Instructions
-
Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
-
Using an electric mixer, beat the sugar and butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, then the vanilla and food coloring. Alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk, mixing just until incorporated.
-
Drop level tablespoons of the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake until the tops are set and spring back when lightly pressed, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
-
While the cookies cool, using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the marshmallow cream and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Spread 1 level tablespoon of filling onto half of the cookies, then sandwich with the remaining cookies. Sprinkle sanding sugar around the edges of the whoopie pies. Serve immediately or refrigerate, in a single layer, covered, for up to 5 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
