{Homemade in December} Whoopie Pies

Now you all know I am a busy mamma. I homeschool my two littles redheads, which takes up a BIG part of my day. The rest of my time is spent tending to my family, the house, etc ... That being said, I don't always have time to make goodies. I am always on the look out for quick, simple recipes, which is what I am sharing with you today. Today I am sharing with you my go to cookie recipe, with a holiday flare of course. It is super easy to make and takes little time and ingredients to make. Perfect for last minute Christmas cookie making!

P/S Don't judge my baking pans...
they just prove I use them often:)

Bake @ 350 for 10-15 minutes.
Cool 10 minutes and then remove to a cooling rack or plate.

Now you can leave your cookies as is or you can whip up some yummy Buttercream icing. I would go with the icing. It is Delish!

Here is my recipe for 5 Minute Butter-cream Frosting

Photobucket

1 lb. box of Powdered Sugar
1/4 cup of milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 stick of butter (softened)

Beat with electric mixer for 2 minutes, scraping bowl often.
I love adding food coloring for the holidays. Always so festive!
Frost cookies and make into sandwhiches.
