Neat Chart

If you like making crafts as much as I do, you always get stuck thinking what is the best adhesive for the materials you are using. My husband stumbled upon this and I figured I would put it on here because it's very helpful. Sorry this isn't food related, but I just had to share!

German Chocolatey Goodness

I'd never made whoopie pies before so I was a little intimidated to try it out. My first batch of the cookies came out great. My second batch came out a little flat and I figured it may be because the butter softened too much or the oven was already too hot.

These german chocolate whoopie pies were made with a simple basic soft chocolate cookie, an extremely easy coconut filling and a chocolate ganache. Putting them all together was like a fun little puzzle.

I had also made a mint chocolate whoopie pie which I was slightly dissapointed in. the peppermint filling was seperating and I contribute that to my butter. It seems like it needs the top quality unsalted butter with quality powdered sugar in order to not seperate. I always have the same problem when making buttercream so hopefully I can perfect that this year as well.
