This cake combines two of the most popular American desserts: whoopie pie and red velvet. Sandwiched between two soft, bright red cookies is a thick layer of snow-white vanilla cream cheese filling. The addition of chocolate and cocoa powder to the dough gives the cookies a rich chocolate flavor that pairs beautifully with the salty cream cheese filling. Fill the cookies when they're completely cool, then let them set further in the refrigerator. A perfect treat for holidays and special occasions.
