I've been so inspired by the cult of Whoopie that I've been carrying out my own experiments in an attempt to create 'the ultimate'. As the Whoopie is an American creation I thought I'd run with that theme and combine Whoopie with peanut butter.
To do this I took my regular Whoopie recipe, omitted the cocoa and replaced about 1/3rd of the butter with peanut butter. The result, though they look 'right' were just a little too dry. Whether this was down to cooking or lack of wet ingredients I'm not quite sure.
Also the glaze though it had the right consistency and 'look' lacked a slight tartness. I think, if I were to attempt these again I would replace my chocolate filling with a creme fraiche based one in order to add a zing and reduce the sweetness.
I've also considered changing the elements around - perhaps a chocolate Whoppie with peanut filling? Peanut with a chocolate glaze? Ahh...so many experiments still to be done!!
