Red velvet whoopie pies are a delightful treat that combines the rich, chocolaty taste of red velvet cake with the fun and portable form of a whoopie pie. Originating from the Amish and becoming popular across the United States, these little desserts are perfect for gatherings, potlucks, or a sweet treat after dinner. The bright red color and the creamy filling make them particularly popular among kids and adults alike!

For an extra special treat, pair them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some fresh berries for a delightful dessert experience.
