Expert Tips

If you'd like smaller pies, use 2 tablespoons batter; bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set.

According to food historians, Amish women would bake these sandwich sweets and put them in farmers' lunch boxes. When farmers would find these treats in their lunch, they would shout "Whoopie!"

Thank you so much for your response. Whoops....I didn't know about the measurements of marshmallow creme. I figured 1 cup equal 8 oz. and since the recipe calls for 2 cups of marshmallow creme, then I figured two 7-oz jars would be about right???? Also, the butter was not melted, it was just softened. I will be making another batch of these with the correct amount of marshmallow creme. THANKS!!

This recipe was fun, easy and the kids loved them. We didn't add the fruit and they were awesome without it.
