More baking: woopie pies

[briarwood]

It's sis's birthday this week, and she requested I make these. The recipe is another from Short and Sweet though I've seen this one elsewhere in various forms, such as this one from BBC Good Food or this one from the All Recipes website. The second is pretty close to Dan Lepard's, which I used. I adjusted Dan's recipe slightly: I'd asked Mum to pick me up some sour cream but she bought the half-fat version. That's generally a bad idea for baking, so I put in more butter than the recipe called for, hoping to balance it out. It seemed to work.The filling is made from melted marshmallows and the icing is just normal icing sugar and cocoa. The little stars are white chocolate - they were left over from the last batch of cupcakes I made before Christmas and I thought they'd add a nice touch.

I must report sis's opinion, as I have not tried one. She says they're delicious - chewy on the inside and the chocolate icing is just slightly bitter.
