Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice.
In a large bowl, beat together the sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, and oil until smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla, mixing until well combined.
Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until thoroughly combined.
Scoop out 1 1/2 tbsp of dough and place it onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space for spreading.
Bake for 10 minutes, then allow them to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Prepare the filling by beating the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth.
Mix in the vanilla and 1 cup of powdered sugar. Adjust the sweetness by adding 1-2 more cups of powdered sugar until the filling is spreadable but not too thin.
Assemble the whoopie pies by spreading the filling on the flat side of one cookie and placing another cookie on top, flat side down.

Notes

Ensure the butter and cream cheese are at room temperature for easy mixing.
Add more powdered sugar to the filling if you prefer a sweeter taste.
Store the whoopie pies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
