CARROT CAKE OATMEAL WHOOPIE PIES, WITH PINEAPPLE CREAM CHEESE FILLING RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Carrot Cake Oatmeal Whoopie Pies, With Pineapple Cream Cheese filling Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 24

For the whoopies pies:
1-1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1-1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature (3/4 cup)
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract
2-1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp coarse salt (or 1/2 tsp table salt)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground ginger
2 cups quick cooking oats
1-1/2 cups grated carrots (about 2 carrots)**
1-1/4 cups golden raisins (optional)
NOTE: **You could leave out the carrots, and these would simply be Oatmeal Whoopie Pies
For the filling:
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
4 oz. cream cheese
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 Tablespoons pineapple jam (optional)
1/4 sweetened coconut, toasted at 325F for about 10 minutes and cooled (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a Silpat baking mat. (I used a Norpro Muffin Top baking pan, but this isn't mandatory.) In the bowl of a stand mixer, with the paddle attachment (or a hand held mixer), combine the sugars and butter. Beat until fluffy--about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the vanilla and eggs, and beat until well combined. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger and whisk together. Slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture; mix on low speed until just combined. Stir in the oats, carrots and raisins with a spatula. Using a medium ice cream scoop, scoop dough onto the prepared sheets, leaving at least 2 inches between cookies. Gently press the cookies until flat. Bake between 12-15 minutes, turning halfway through to ensure even baking. They should be lightly golden brown around the edges. NOTE: These make 8 HUGE whoopie pies, so user a smaller scoop to make smaller whoopie pies. Reduce the baking time between 10-12 minutes each. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. To make the frosting: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter until smooth. Add cream cheese and beat until well combined. Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla, beat just until smooth. (Filling can be made up to a day in advance. Cover and refrigerate; let stand at room temperature to soften before using.) To assemble the whoopie pies, turn one cookie with the baked bottom facing up. Scoop some filling, and gently press another cookie on top. Wrap in plastic wrap. Keep whoopie pies refrigerated, and bring to room temperature about 30 minutes before eating. Stores for up to 5 days, refrigerated.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 cups cake flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 2/3 cups white sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
3 eggs, beaten, room temperature
1 1/4 cups whole milk, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon butter
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice (do not drain)
1 dash salt
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup water
2 egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups sweetened flaked coconut

Steps:

  • For the cake:.
  • Preheat oven 375 degrees F. Butter and flour three 9-inch cake pans and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, sift flour, baking powder and salt. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar, add beaten eggs, milk, and vanilla and use a hand mixer to blend together. Add flour mixture in three batches, using mixer to incorporate all ingredients.
  • Pour evenly into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25 minutes. Use a toothpick to make sure cake is done. Remove from oven and cool on rack 5 minutes and invert cake onto rack to finish cooling.
  • For the pineapple filling:.
  • Combine ingredients, cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thick and clear. Cool before using.
  • For the icing:.
  • Place sugar, cream of tartar, salt, water and egg whites in the top of a double boiler. Beat with a hand mixer for 1 minute. Place pan over boiling water, being sure that the boiling water does not touch the bottom of the top pan. (If this happens, it could cause your frosting to become grainy). Beat constantly on high speed with mixer for 7 minutes. Beat in vanilla.
  • Assemble the cakes:.
  • Take a pedestal cake dish and put first layer of cake, spread half of the pineapple filling, take second layer cake and put on top first layer and spread with other half of filling, take third cake and place on top second layer and start icing around the sides of the cake. Put the rest of the icing on top of cake and make big swirls for a nice finish. Take sweetened shredded coconut and immediately put around the sides and on top of cake before the icing dries. Enjoy!

2 teaspoons clear vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ¾ teaspoons baking powder
½ cup coconut milk
¾ cup crushed pineapple with juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 ¾ cups confectioners' sugar
¾ cup shortening

  • Bake in the preheated oven until the top springs back when lightly touched, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a cooling rack. Let cool, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine crushed pineapple, juice, and cornstarch in a saucepan. Whisk until cornstarch is smooth. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until filling has thickened and just barely starts to boil. Remove and set aside to cool.
  • Cream confectioners' sugar and shortening together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla extract. Gradually add coconut milk, beating until smooth; you may need to use more or less milk depending on the desired thickness of the icing.
  • Cut the cooled cake in half to form two 4 1/2x9-inch pieces. Spread pineapple filling on top of one half. Place the other half, top-side down, on top of the filling. Frost the sides and top with icing, then sprinkle coconut all over icing, pressing gently so it sticks.

PINEAPPLE FILLING: BASIC PIE FILLING POSTED IN JAP (HALF RECIPE) USING CAN OF CRUSHED PINEAPPLE

Steps:

  • 1. Allow egg whites to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes (reserve yolks for another use). Prepare the pineapple filling and store in the refrigerator while preparing the cake. Grease three 8x1 1/2-inch round cake pans. Line bottoms of pans with parchment paper. Grease parchment paper only and lightly flour pans; set aside. In medium bowl stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 3/4 teaspoon salt; set aside.
  • 2. Preheat over to 350 degrees. In large mixing bowl beat butter with electric mixer on medium to high for 30 seconds. Add sugar and vanilla; beat until well combined. Add egg whites all at once; beat on medium-high 3 minutes. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk/nectar combined to butter mixture, beating on low after each addition just until combined. Divide batter among prepared pans. (If you do not have 3 pans, refrigerate remaining batter until ready to use.)
  • 3. Bake in preheated oven 30 to 35 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near centers comes out clean. Cool cakes in pans on wire racks 10 minutes. Remove layers from pans. Cool thoroughly on racks.
  • 4. *Prepare Vanilla Sour Cream Frosting. Set in refrigerator while cake cools. If you are not using the pineapple filling then double the frosting recipe, which makes plentiful frosting. I found the sugar to be too much and suggest you use only 6 cups (for the doubling) of powdered sugar and cool the frosting before icing the cake for consistency to frost.
  • 5. Add pineapple filling between the layers as your stacking the cake. Frost with Vanilla Sour Cream Forsting or your favorite icing. Store, covered, in refrigerator.

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup unsalted butter, softened, plus additional for pans
3 cups cake flour, plus additional for pans
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup cream of coconut
1/4 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
2 large whole eggs

3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh lime zest
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup chopped drained canned pineapple chunk
5 1/2 ounces flaked coconut

Steps:

  • Make cake: Preheat oven to 325°F and line the bottom of 2 buttered 9x2-inch round cake pans with parchment. Butter paper and dust pans with flour, knocking out excess flour.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk together cream of coconut, milk, and extracts in a bowl.
  • Beat together butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add whole eggs and egg whites, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, until combined well. On low speed, beat in flour mixture and cream of coconut mixture alternately in batches, beginning and ending with flour mixture, until just combined (do not overbeat).
  • Pour batter evenly into the prepared cake pans (about 2-3/4 cups per pan) and smooth tops. Bake cake layers in middle of oven until golden and a cake tester inserted in centers comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer pans to racks and let cool for 5 minutes. Run a small knife around edges of pans and invert layers onto racks. Peel off paper, then reinvert layers right side up and cool.
  • Make Frosting and Filling: Beat cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Beat in butter and lime zest until smooth. Slowly beat in confectioners' sugar on low speed until smooth for frosting. Transfer 1 cup of frosting to a bowl and fold in pineapple for filling.
  • Place 1 cake layer on a serving platter and spread top evenly with filling. Refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes. Top with second layer, then spread top and sides with frosting. Chill cake until frosting is slightly firm. Coat top and sides of cake evenly with coconut flakes. Makes 8 to 10 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 23

CAKE:
- 3 cups cake flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 2/3 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 3 eggs, beaten, room temperature
- 1 1/4 cups whole milk, room temperature
PINEAPPLE FILLING:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice ( do not drain)
SEVEN-MINUTE ICING:
- 1 dash salt
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 egg whites
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups sweetened flaked coconut

Steps:

  • For the cake:. Preheat oven 375 degrees F. Butter and flour three 9-inch cake pans and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, sift flour, baking powder and salt. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar, add beaten eggs, milk, and vanilla and use a hand mixer to blend together. Add flour mixture in three batches, using mixer to incorporate all ingredients.
  • Pour evenly into the prepared cake pans and bake for 25 minutes. Use a toothpick to make sure cake is done. Remove from oven and cool on rack 5 minutes and invert cake onto rack to finish cooling.
  • For the pineapple filling:. Combine ingredients, cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thick and clear. Cool before using.
  • For the icing:. Place sugar, cream of tartar, salt, water and egg whites in the top of a double boiler. Beat with a hand mixer for 1 minute. Place pan over boiling water, being sure that the boiling water does not touch the bottom of the top pan. (If this happens, it could cause your frosting to become grainy). Beat constantly on high speed with mixer for 7 minutes. Beat in vanilla.
  • Assemble the cakes:. Take a pedestal cake dish and put first layer of cake, spread half of the pineapple filling, take second layer cake and put on top first layer and spread with other half of filling, take third cake and place on top second layer and start icing around the sides of the cake. Put the rest of the icing on top of cake and make big swirls for a nice finish. Take sweetened shredded coconut and immediately put around the sides and on top of cake before the icing dries.
