These pumpkin chocolate chip whoopie pies are low sugar, made with Truvia and Russell Stover Sugar-free Chocolate Chips. You can eat these pumpkin treats guilt-free, because the chocolate chips are Stevia-sweetened!
I really dislike using artificial sweeteners, so when I found these Stevia-sweetened chocolate chips, I was pretty happy! They taste great, too. No weird aftertaste, like you sometimes get with stevia. (There is still sugar in this recipe, but not much. I use the Cane sugar blend, which is 75% stevia and 25% cane sugar. )

Low-sugar Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Whoopie Pies
This recipe takes a long list of ingredients, but don't let that stop you! They are mostly just pantry ingredients, you probably already have most of them in your cupboards.
To make the pumpkin cookies, you first beat the Truvia Cane Sugar and oil together. Then add eggs, pumpkin, and vanilla and beat again. Finally, add flour and spices, and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips.
Spray a baking tray with nonstick spray, and scoop the dough onto the tray. Bake for 10 minutes, or until cookies are dry to the touch. Place cookies on wire rack to cool.
Note: I used homemade pumpkin puree for these cookies. Because of that, the cookies aren't as bright orange color as they would be if I used store-canned pumpkin.
To make cream cheese frosting
Place softened cream cheese, butter, and vanilla in a mixing bowl. Whip with electric mixer. Add Truvia confectioner's sweetener, and beat well.
Spread 2 tablespoons frosting on cooled cookie, top with second cookie. Repeat for all cookies. Place pumpkin chocolate chip cookies into an airtight container or wrap each cookie individually. Store in fridge, or freeze for later.
My kids love whoops pies straight from the freezer! I prefer mine chilled, but freezing them is a good way to keep them. They freeze well, making them perfect for lunchbox meal prep.
