Instructions

1. Make the Chocolate Whoopie Pies

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
Alternate adding the dry ingredients and buttermilk, mixing until smooth.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the tops are set. Let cool completely.

2. Prepare the German Chocolate Filling

In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together evaporated milk, sugar, egg yolk, and butter.
Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens (about 5 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, coconut, and pecans. Let cool.

3. Assemble the Whoopie Pies

Spread or pipe the German chocolate filling onto the flat side of one whoopie pie.
Top with another whoopie pie, pressing gently to sandwich them together.
Repeat with the remaining cookies.
