The Whoopie Pies (guupi feet) are fairly common sweets in the Northwest of U.S. (between Pennsylvania and Maine). In Maine there is even a contest to see who eats most the day of the Heritage Festival. The whoopie pie isn't a biscuit sandwich, or a cake. The main features of the whoopie feet is that they are soft, round and with a generous and creamy filling. They are delicious.

I will tell you that they are delicious and are very comfortable to prepare. The part of cake of the whoopie pie, can be frozen once it has cooled completely. First, get into the freezer in a tray, and after an hour, when they are completely frozen, are passed to a freezer bag with zip (zip closure) and you can freeze them for a month. When you go to eat, should let them thaw at room temperature for at least two hours before filling them.

You can also choose to freeze Stuffed: are wrapped in paper film one by one and are preserved in the freezer up to a month. Proceed with the freezing as explained in the previous paragraph, and ready.

Although in my opinion, the best way is to eat them the same day that fill, because they tend to stick, and if stacked, will unite with each other. If we will fill a day before eating them, will have to put them in single layer and some flat tupper, and cover them.
