Whoopie Pie Cake

So this post is gonna be simple.
This Whoopie Pie Cake was sort of accidental. Obviously not accidental in intention, but accidental in execution.
See, I was going to make this a super fancy, stack-o-whoopie pies piled up to make a giant gorgeous deconstructed type cake.
Unfortunately, ain’t nobody got time for that.
Meaning me. I ain’t got time for that.
So I took the easy route.
It might not be as visually appealing as a giant stack of whoopie pies…I mean not much would…but it is incredibly tasty.
And also, you can actually slice it without holding your breath.
Which is kind of important, because I can only hold my breath for like 7 seconds before I’m certain I will faint.
