Equipment

  • wire rack

Ingredients
  

For the Cookies

  • 1.5 cups Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup Cocoa Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 cup Softened Butter
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 cup Buttermilk

For the Filling

  • 1/2 cup Softened Butter
  • 2 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tsp Peppermint Extract
  • 2 drops Green Food Coloring

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the gluten free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add the egg and mix well. Alternately mix in the dry ingredients and buttermilk until a smooth, thick batter forms.
  • Drop mound-shaped spoonfuls of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cakes spring back when touched. Let them cool completely on wire racks.
  • For the filling, beat the softened butter, powdered sugar, peppermint extract, and green food coloring until a fluffy green frosting forms.
  • Spread a generous amount of the mint filling onto the flat side of one chocolate cake, then top with a second cake to form a whoopie pie.
