I wanted to make Whoopie Pies today to take away with us skiing, and couldn't find our family recipe. I used this recipe from allrecipes.com: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Whoopie-Pies-VIII/Detail.aspx, it came highly recommended. But the cakes came out so flat, I can't possibly fill them. They looked more like chocolate pancakes or cookies. (Glad I hadn't already make the filling.)

Sisters, does anyone have our childhood recipe on hand ... or can anyone see what might be wrong with this one?
