Ingredients (for 12 servings):

For the cakes:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup buttermilk

For the filling:

- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1 cup fresh raspberries, chopped
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp lemon juice

Cooking Tips:

- Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature before starting the recipe.
- Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together to avoid lumps in the batter.
- Use a cookie scoop to make the cakes uniform in size.
- Chill the filling before using it to make it easier to spread.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, until the batter is smooth.
5. Using a cookie scoop, drop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cake.
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cakes are set. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
7. In a medium saucepan, combine the strawberries, raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and the fruit breaks down, about 10 minutes.
8. Remove the filling from the heat and let it cool completely.
9. To assemble the whoopie pies, spread a generous amount of filling on the flat side of one cake and top it with another cake.
10. Serve and enjoy!
