Ingredients:

• 1 cup pumpkin
• 2 eggs
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 2 tsp nutmeg
• 2 cups flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 4 tsp baking soda
• 4 tsp salt
• 2 cups chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup margarine
• 4 cups marshmallow creme
• 2-3 cups confectioners’ sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tsp warm water
• 2 tsp vanilla

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Prepare Batter:

   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix until well blended.
   • Gradually add in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir until fully incorporated.
   • Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed. The batter will be thick.

3. Shape Cookies:

   • Grease cookie sheets or line them with parchment paper.
   • Using a spoon, scoop out portions of the batter and place them onto the prepared cookie sheets. You can lightly spray the spoon with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

4. Bake:

   • Place the cookie sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 18 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown and set.

5. Prepare Filling:

   • While the cookies are baking, prepare the filling. In a separate mixing bowl, cream together the margarine, marshmallow creme, and 2 cups of confectioners’ sugar until smooth and creamy.
   • Beat in the salt and vanilla until well combined.
   • Gradually add in an additional 2-3 cups of confectioners’ sugar, beating until the filling reaches your desired consistency.

6. Assemble Whoopie Pies:

   • Once the cookies have cooled completely, spread a generous amount of filling onto the flat side of one cookie.
   • Top with another cookie, flat side down, to create a sandwich.
   • Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Serve these delicious Pumpkin Chip Whoopie Pies at room temperature and enjoy the wonderful combination of flavors and textures!
