Halloween Whoopie Pies #SundaySupper

These light and fluffy little chocolate cakes are sandwiched together by a creamy marshmallow buttercream. 

Adding orange sprinkles to the exposed frosting turns these Halloween Whoopie Pies into a fun and festive treat! 

Halloween is definitely one of my most favorite holidays. From the decorations to the costumes, haunted houses and corn mazes, it’s a time of the year that my whole family enjoys. Usually I can hardly wait until October 1^st to pull out my decorations, and I’ve been known to start putting things up a week or so before that. It’s just a fun time to celebrate! My boys are grown up now, but I loved dressing them up when they were little. Some of my favorite pictures of them are from Halloween, dressed up as Buzz Lightyear, Winnie the Pooh, a lion, a fireman…the list goes on. Now I’m getting all nostalgic!

I also love the food this time of year. It’s fun to make spooky snacks and treats, but I’m a bit obsessed with baking all kinds of good things. From decorated cupcakes and orange frosted brownies, I enjoy making a lot of different desserts and sharing them with friends and family.

Peanut Butter Cupcakes with Creamy Vanilla Frosting

I love Halloween and finally got my entire house decorated last weekend. I had some things out but not all of my goodies, so I finished it all up. I think other than Christmas, Halloween is my favorite holiday!

Since I was in the Halloween spirit I decided to make some fun cupcakes. I tweaked my peanut butter cupcake recipe a bit and they turned out so good! My kids, and parents, devoured them.

Peeps Halloween Brownies

The kind people over at Peeps sponsored our Blogger Recipe Challenge group this month. All they asked in return is that we create a craft or recipe using their special Halloween Peeps. Each member of our group received the entire Halloween 2013 Peeps Collection, which consisted of ghosts, cats, pumpkins, chocolate covered Peeps and even sugar-free Peeps. Since each person in our group is so different, it will be fun to see what we all come up with and create. You can find all of our projects via the link at the bottom of this post.

Me being the baker, I knew I wanted to make a dessert and do something fun with my Peeps. So I took my favorite brownie recipe, turned it into a brownie "cake", frosted it, and topped it with cute Halloween Peeps.
