"Giants" Whoopie Pies

If you do not know our family are huge Giants baseball fans. So in honor of them making the playoffs I decided to make "Giants" Whoopie Pies. They may look a little messing in the picture but they sure are delicious! I actually got this recipe from pinterest, since I am not the best baker in the family, but I was able to pull these off. Go Giants!!!
