cakes:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup neutral oil
- 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
filling:
- 8 ounce pkg cream cheese, softened
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
- Pinch of salt
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp bourbon
for cakes:
Preheat oven to 350°. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, soda, salt, and spices in a bowl.
Mix sugar, oil, pumpkin, egg, and vanilla, then stir in flour mixture.
Using a #30 scoop or tablespoon, drop a scant scoop of batter or 2 scant tablespoons of batter onto a lined baking sheet to form a mound keeping them about 2 inches apart. Form and bake remaining batter on the other parchment-lined sheet. You should have a total of about 32 cakes.
Bake until springy to the touch, about 14 minutes. Transfer cakes to rack to cool.
for filling:
While cakes are baking, beat cream cheese, butter, and salt in a bowl with mixer until smooth. Add powdered sugar and bourbon and mix on low speed until smooth.
assemble whoopie pies:
Spread 1 heaping tablespoon of filling each on flat side of half the cooled cakes, then top with other half of cakes.
