Baking Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Before you begin, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2: Prepare The Whoopie Pie Batter

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3: Cream The Butter And Sugar
