Red Velvet Whoopie Pies
The recipe was awesome, but I did make a couple of adjustments… I left out the red food coloring, and I added fresh blueberries on top of the filling. Yummy! These are the prettiest whoopee pies ever! I just love that rich jewel red velvet!
The cookies will only take about 10-12 minutes in the oven, then let them completely cool before sandwiching cream cheese filling between.
