In reply to Sharon.

Hi! You will use partially melted butter in the whoopie pie dough and softened butter to make the frosting – sorry for the confusion!
Partially melted butter means half of the butter is liquid, while half of it is in the softened brick stage.

In reply to Paula Hylbak. I've never used a whoopie pie pan, but I think about 2/3 full should do the trick!

Hi! If you’re looking to make a vanilla whoopie pie, I recommend following this recipe: https://cookingwithkarli.com/pink-velvet-whoopie-pies-cookie-of-the-month-club/. You will just want to substitute vanilla flavoring for the cake batter flavoring and omit the pink food coloring!

Can I omit the cocoa to make vanilla cakes?

In reply to Brooke. Absolutely! I usually make my buttermilk substitute with vinegar and it works great.

If you don’t have buttermilk, could you try one of the buttermilk substitutes like milk with lemon juice or vinegar?

I have a whoopie pan how full should I fill the cups?

Your ingredients list 1/2 cup salted butter, softened. However, your instructions (in the actual recipe, as well as the ‘overview’ instructions) say to mix ‘partially melted butter’ and brown sugar . . . which is it? Softened or partially melted? And what constitutes ‘partially melted’?

In reply to BOB JK. Really depends on your preference, I usually pipe about 2 inches in diameter.
