This Chunky Monkey Whoopie Pies Recipe gives the classic treat a whole new spin with a banana filling and walnut and chocolate chip garnish.
While a traditional whoopie pie is a classic treat, it’s always fun to change things up a bit and throw in a few new flavors to come up with something totally new. This Chunky Monkey Whoopie Pies recipe is one of those things!
This version combines the chocolatey outside (easy to whip up with chocolate cake mix), filled with a banana cream and finished off with walnuts and chocolate chips on the edges.
If you’re not a fan of walnuts, you can switch it up with your favorite type of nuts – or even no nuts at all!
To get the classic whoopee pie shape and pies that are all the same size, you can use a whoopee pie pan. Luckily they aren’t very expensive and you’ll be able to make lots of whoopee pies! (The pan is also good for making muffin tops.)
If you don’t have a pan, you can instead spread the dough on parchment paper lined baking sheets in a circle shape.
