Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Whoopie Pies

Any kind of whoopie pies are delicious, but these treats that are a mixture of chocolate chip cookie and whoopie pie are extra special. Bake these up and everyone will be sure to love them!


Don't they look good enough to eat? 

I filled mine with chocolate buttercream, but you can use whatever you want. I'm sure marshmallow creme would be great.


Yum.
