Birthday whoopie (food porn alert)

Last night, Dan picked me up at the gym with a little surprise in the back seat...revealed, once home, to be the most insane, decadent, outrageous and just plain wrong Whoopie Pie from a bakery called Sweet Mandy B's.

It looked like this, only more frosting and with sprinkles:

Accompanying said Whoopie Pie was an even more extreme version, a Dreamy Pie - imagine two frisbee-sized, freshly baked choco chip cookies sandwiched around the most decadent three inch-high layer of vanilla buttercream. I had a tiny orgasm just opening the box.

Might I add that my husband is so crazy amazing that he actually called the bakery yesterday morning to ask them to reserve these treats for us, because they typically sell out by 5pm? Who does that? I mean, besides people I love, respect, admire and build shrines to. He apparently learned a lesson when I sent him on a PMS-fueled Whoopie Pie mission about two months ago and he arrived after work to see an empty cake platter sprinkled with a few sad little WP crumbles. He said he looked at the woman behind the counter and said, in a very serious voice, "I think we might have a problem." But it all worked out in the end because that is how we discovered the Dreamy Pie.

I disovered today that the bakery behind my office sells these in mint, with homemade mint whipped cream in the center. I ate almost the entire thing for lunch.

I'm glad someone else understands about the peanut butter and jelly waffle sandwiches! Are you with me on peanut butter and black olive sandwiches? (Can you tell that I'm more than a little obsessed with PB?)

I am now obsessed with creating a whoopie pie in my kitchen (and yes, peanut butter will be involved). Let the experimentation begin...
