Recipe: Peppermint Cow Pies
Posted on November 19, 2013 by Frozen Pints
Chocolate whoopie pie cakes, Moo-Hoo Mint ice cream filling, rolled in peppermint candy
Cakes:
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (room temperature)
4 tablespoons vegetable shortening
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup milk
Filling:
2 pints Moo-Hoo Mint
Crushed peppermint candy, to garnish
Make the Cakes: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. In another bowl, beat together the butter, shortening and brown sugar on low speed. When combined, increase the speed to medium and beat until fluffy and smooth (about 3 minutes). Add the egg and vanilla and beat
for another 2 minutes. Gradually add the flour mixture and milk to the batter – beating on low, and scraping down the sides of the bowl until completely combined.
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of batter onto one of the prepared baking sheets and repeat, spacing them at least 3 inches apart. Bake one sheet at a time for about 10 minutes each (until pies spring back when pressed gently). Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a rack to cool completely. Place in freezer once cool to make for easy assembly.
Assemble the Cow Pies: Scoop approximately 3oz ice cream onto the flat side of one cake – use a knife or spoon to smooth to the edges. Top it with another cake, flat-side down. Roll the edges in crushed candy canes. Place in freezer. Repeat with the rest of the cakes and ice cream. Remove
from freezer and let stand 3-5 minutes before serving.

We worked with Happy Hour Confections (Beer Infused Baked Goods) to develop a custom recipe for our hoppiest flavor. And don’t worry – there’s beer in the turnover, too. And the caramel. What did you expect?

- 2 sticks butter (cold and cubed)
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ¼ to ½ cup cold IPA or Pale Ale (We love O’Dempsey’s Inukshuk IPA)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
Combine flour, cinnamon, salt and sugar in a large bowl and stir to combine. Cut in cold butter. Add enough beer to bring the dough together. Form into a ball and chill for 2 hours.
Apple Filling:
Peel the apples and cut into small cubes. Put in a saucepan with the other ingredients and cook until the apples are softer but not mushy. Set aside to cool.
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Allow dough to come back to room temperature and roll out to about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into 3 inch squares. Spoon the apple mixture viagra sans ordonnance in the center and add one tablespoon of Porter Caramel. Fold the dough over to make a triangular turnover. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
