1 cup unbleached or all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter, at room temperature
1 lg egg white
1/2 cup 1% milk
3/4 cup marshmallow crème
Preheat oven to 425°F.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, combine sugar, butter, and egg white. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat 2 minutes, or until fluffy. Stir in flour mixture, then milk, until just blended.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto large, ungreased baking sheets to make 32 cookies. Bake 5 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly touched.
Place the baking sheets on racks to cool completely. Spoon about 2 teaspoons marshmallow on the bottoms of 16 cookies. Top with the remaining 16 cookies.

Does anyone know of a vanilla version? I'm not a chocolate lover...
I used to make whoopie pies when I lived in Pennsylvania...whoopie pies are from the Amish. There is also an oatmeal whoopie pie. Instead of chocolate cookies, you make an oatmeal cookie instead. Anyone have the recipe for oatmeal whoopie pies?
Yeah leave out the coca.
ooh! this sounds good! I will make some of these tonight!
Here is an easy way, instead of the cocoa mix, use cake mixes, vanilla, or chocolate, very easy to make
Tansy, couldn't you just use sugar cookie in place of the cocoa cookie?
pumpkin whoopie pies are even better this time of year...we like them chilled from the freezer...refreshing, and much easier to eat. :-)
sounds yummy!!
This sounds really good, I think I will try it during the holidays.
Marshmallow Creme sounds way too sweet.... I'd probably try to tame it by folding in some unsweetened whipped cream or beaten egg whites, etc.
Oh, that sounds delicious.
These are also great in pumpkin flavor. YUM
I love the pumpkin flavor idea from Judi up about. We just baked up a few sugar pumpkins and have been trying to think of what to do with them all.
Sounds like a great cookie. Can't decide on which flavor to bake tomorrow 
!! Pumpkin sounds the best.
My husband will love these. Anything with marshmallow creme.:)
wow this sounds yummy thank you lisa V
I'm looking forward to trying it. It really look yummy....:-)brenda
For Tansy,That's possitively Unamerican !!
These are called GOBS where I live & you can get pumpkin & banana flavors too at craft shows. Mom & I used to bake 100 of them at Christmas time & then freeze them & pop 10 out at a time or so. Not the low cal version of course :) So now I'll have to see if she has some in her freezer...
Cream Cheese frosting in the middle is better than marshmallow cream
I would love to make these....the pumpkin sounds extra special combined with the cream cheese. Does anyone have a recipe for the pumpkin...thanks.
These all really Good. A friend of mine use to make these all the time.
Thanks for the tip to use a sugar cookie or cake mix! I bet that is yummy!
These sound SO good! I'm having a bunco get together here later this month. I think these are going to be on the menu! YUM!!!!!
sound great - thanks for the lo-calorie version!!
