Ingredients

For the pies:

1 stick unsalted butter, melted, cooled to room temperature

1 cup packed light-brown sugar

2 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten

1 cup canned pure pumpkin purée

2 teaspoons cinnamon

2 teaspoons ground ginger

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

3/4 teaspoon salt

1-2/3 cups flour

For the filling:

8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature

1/2 stick unsalted butter, softened

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

2 tablespoons maple syrup

3/4 cup powdered sugar

a few pinches salt

Directions

Pies:

Heat oven to 350°.

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In the bowl of a standing mixer with whisk attachment, mix together butter and brown sugar until smooth.

Add eggs, pumpkin purée, spices, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Using a spatula, fold in flour.

With an ice-cream scoop, drop 6 generous mounds of batter, spaced evenly, onto each of the two baking sheets.

Bake until springy to the touch, about 10 minutes.

Transfer to a rack to cool completely.

Filling:

In the bowl of a standing mixer or electric beater, cream together cream cheese and butter.

Add vanilla, maple syrup, powdered sugar, and salt.

Mix on low speed until blended; then beat on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Completion:

Spread the flat sides of 6 cakes with cream-cheese frosting. Top each with another cake.

Love Pumpkin Whoopie pies....this is very similar to the recipe I have posted but the filling has nutmeg. I swear people can smell them baking because I get a lot of company when I make them.
Nice post
