These cute red velvet whoopie pies are made by sandwiching soft, fluffy red velvet cake pillows either side of a luscious cream cheese filling.

I love making gorgeous treats that are beautifully photogenic. Red Velvet cake is definitely a recipe which looks and tastes amazing. I first shared this recipe in 2013 on my pre-Thermomix recipe site. It got a lot of love from readers so I decided to convert it for the Thermomix.

To make the recipe suitable I have converted the ingredients from cup measures to grams and changed the method to suit the Thermomix. Since not everyone has a Thermomix I have also shared the convention method below. 

Red Velvet Cake Stand Mixer Method

Below are the instructions for making whoopie pies using a conventional stand mixer.

  1. Pre-heat oven to 170 degrees.
  2. Line 3 cookie trays with baking paper.
  3. In a stand mixer cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  4. Add eggs one at a time mixing well in between each addition.
  5. With the mixer still on add vanilla and food colouring.
  6. In a large bowl combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and bicarb soda
  7. Scrape the butter and sugar mixture into the large bowl with the flour.
  8. Add the milk and fold through so all the ingredients are combined by hand.
  9. Drop teaspoons of the mixture onto the prepared trays leaving room for spreading.
  10. Bake for 10 mins or until the cakes are light and springy to touch.
  11. Cool for 5 minutes on the tray and then place on a wire rack.
  12. Repeat until all the mixture has been cooked.
  13. While the cakes are cooling prepare the cream cheese filling by beating all the ingredients together on high the frosting is light and fluffy.
  14. Place the frosting in a piping bag and filling half the whoopie pies with frosting. Match the frosted bottoms with tops of a similar size.
  15. Store the filled whoopie pies in an airtight container in the fridge. Place baking paper between the layers.

The Perfect Mother's Day Tea Time Treat! Click to Tweet
Note:
Don't forget to leave enough spacing for the cakes to spread!
The cakes can be made ahead of time and frozen in a single layer without the cream cheese filling. When they are needed they can be filled whilst frozen and left on a plate to thaw.

Hi, I'm Julie, a recipe developer, published cookbook author, and registered nutritionist. My first love has always been cooking and food.

I discovered Thermomix in 2014 and loved it so much I became a consultant for the brand.
