chocolate punkin whoopie pies

so i told you about these little punkie pie cookies here.. they are so simple and easy.. once i made them i thought they would make cute whoopie pies.. i had some left over chocolate ganach from making my no bake s'more cake in the fridge and decided to combine the two and make whoopie pies.. but if you had nutella or chocolate frosting either one would be ideal for these little treats.. just quick little goodies.. make a sunday afternoon seem special.. be sure to have a tall glass of ice cold milk around..

punkin pie cookies

betty crocker spice cake mix
15 oz can pumpkin
mini chocolate chips (approx. 1 cup)

preheat your oven to 350 degrees (f). mix all the ingredients together, spoon onto a lined cookie sheet, i used my cookie scooper...bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes until just firm..

chocolate ganache

1/2 a bag of semi sweet chocolate chips (8 oz)
1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream

combine everything in a heavy bottom sauce pot and cook on medium low until chocolate is melted and creamy.. remove from heat and allow to cool it will become frosting like consistency after a while and easy to spread.  Once cookies have cooled spead of this heavenly frosting on the bottom of one of the cookies and top with another.. it's heaven on a plate!!
