RED VELVET WHOOPIE PIE

 Some context from Wikipedia to those interested to know about these cookies :-

The whoopie pie (alternatively called a gob, black-and-white, bob, or "BFO" for Big Fat Oreo) is an American baked good that may be considered either acookie, pie, or cake. It is made of two round mound-shaped pieces of chocolate cake, or sometimes pumpkin or gingerbread cake, with a sweet, creamy filling orfrosting sandwiched between them.^[1] 

Nice cookies and you can make a few variations, some of the popular whoopie pies are  chocolate and pumpkin. I love the texture of the cookies. Try this it's awesome
