Go Seahawks! Not a Seahawks fan? Here’s the recipe so you can adjust to your team colors… if you must.

Game Day Whoop Ass Pies

Preheat oven to 350°F

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (or 4 ounces), softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 recipe of Light & Fluffy Filling (recipe below)
  • 2 food colorings in your team colors
  • Candy sprinkles in your team colors

Cream butter and sugar in a mixing bowl at high speed until light & fluffy. Turn speed to low and add wet ingredients. After wet ingredients are combined with butter mixture, add wet ingredients.

Split batter in half. Stir one food coloring for your team colors into the batter very well, and then the second color into the rest of the batter.

Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

For large whoopie pies, use an ice cream scoop to make pies. For smaller ones, use a cookie scoop. Drop scoops onto baking sheets. Place in preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until tops of pies bounce back when lightly touched.

After pies have cooled, turn upside down and use a decorating bag to cover with filling. Place second pie of opposing color (See what I did there?) on top of filling to sandwich pies together. If desired, roll sides into pretty sprinkles.

Light & Fluffy Filling

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 pound powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla… or mint, or almond, or maple (you get the idea)
  • 3/4 teaspoon sea salt

Whisk milk & flour together in a saucepan. Place over medium-high heat and watch closely. Continue whisking. It will get thick. Cook for about one minute while whisking. Remove from heat, move it into a small bowl, and set it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Place butter & sugar in the mixer on high speed until light & fluffy. After flour & milk mixture has cooled to almost room temp, add to mixer and whip until light & fluffy. It should look almost like whipped cream.

Note: For a very white filling you can substitute butter with white shortening; but, shortening just won’t taste nearly as lovely.

Troubleshooting: If the filling is too loose or separates, it means the butter or the flour mixture was too warm. Stick the whole mixing bowl if filling in the refrigerator until it is so cold it sets. Then whip when cold until it becomes light and fluffy.

Super fun to serve upon matching cupcake liners placed upside down and with a sign reading “Whoop Ass Pies”- preferably when your team is winning.
