In New York, we have a huge maple syrup industry. I took a basic whoopie pie and gave it a twist using our beloved maple flavor. —Holly Balzer-Harz, Malone, New York

Best ever! Follow the directions exactly. Yes it made a lot of filling, but traditional whoopies have a LOT of filling!!
I made this recipe to take to a friend after knee surgery. The pies (cookies) are very good, however, the baking time was 15-18 minutes in my oven. The filling made a lot more than required. The recipe is easy to follow and the time to prepare is not long. I would make these again.
