Italian Whoopies
Italian whoopies are a delightful twist on the classic American whoopie pies. These treats consist of two soft, cake-like cookies sandwiched together with a creamy filling. The Italian version often incorporates traditional flavors such as almond, pistachio, or citrus zest in the cookies, giving them a unique taste.The filling typically includes mascarpone cheese or ricotta, which adds a rich and creamy texture with a subtle sweetness. These whoopies can be enhanced with various additions like chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit. The combination of soft, flavorful cookies and luscious filling makes Italian whoopies a popular choice for gatherings and celebrations.
