I was looking for a recipe for red velvet cake but most of the ones I found were "mock red velvet cake" which means they substituted the real red ingredient with food coloring, BEETS. EPIC FAIL

As I was rifling through a myriad of recipe sites in search of the perfect recipe, as well through my pantry for some inspiration, I came across some Oreo's and became immediately inspired.

Inspired to make the perfect red velvet dessert, something rich, creamy as well as cakey, delicious and wholesome.

I landed on Red Velvet Whoopie Pies with Peanut Butter filling & crushed roasted hazel & cashew nuts. If you remember as a kid, whoopie pies exemplify the perfect mix of cake and frosting.
