INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon and salt.
- In a second mixing bowl, beat the butter and brown sugar together until creamy.
- Beat in the egg, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract.
- Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture.
- Spoon the batter into the pastry bag.
- For the Mickey faces, pipe 2.5 inch blobs or batter on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart. Remember, you need two for each whoopie pie. Use a clean fingertip to gently flatten the blobs into uniform circles.
- Pipe small ear blobs at the top of each batter face, keeping them as close in size as possible. Again, use a wet fingertip to flatten them.
- Bake the Mickey pumpkin whoopie pies until they spring back when you press down on the center (about 8-10 minutes).
- Let them cool on the baking sheet slightly before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Spoon cream cheese frosting into a pastry bag.
- Pair up the baked pumpkin cakes, matching the shapes and sizes as best you can.
- Working with one pair at a time, turn one of the cakes face down and pipe moderate mounds of frosting on the face and ears.
- Top the frosted cake with its match and gently press down to spread the filling and hold the Mickey pumpkin whoopie pie together.
- Store leftover Mickey Pumpkin Whoopie Pies in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Enjoy!
