Pumpkin Whoopie Pie Recipe

Got my Kroger magazine a few weeks ago and I had to try the pumpkin whoopie pie recipe! They looked absolutely scrummy on the cover, easy right?

Actually... not bad! I didn't get a picture, cause the kiddos gobbled them all up, but... the only thing I'd change is a little less maple flavor.

Here's the recipe, try it out and let me know how it works for you!
