Recipe Introduction
The Memorial Day Parade, in the small Massachusetts town where I grew up, went right by the end of our street... so we could always count on alot of drop-in company that day. I'm still not sure whether it was to see us, or because everybody knew my mother would always have these Whoopie Pies on hand for that day! I love them as much today as I did then....... (maybe more!)
