This place is always busy, from when the doors open until the shoo the last person out the door. If you're lucky enough to see a table open, grab it! Since there are only about seven tables in the little place, it is most likely that you won't find a place to sit. Luckily, they have a take-out place right next door. BF and I usually get it to go during the summer and eat it in the park down the street!

Key Lime Whoopie Pies
Adapted from Everyday Food
I love key lime everything. When it's my birthday, I would be as happy with a key lime pie and I would be with a birthday cake. When we visiting Key West, I made sure to stock up on Key lime juice and eat a few slices of pie. These little whoopie pies are like an easy to eat cupcake!
For Cookies
1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup greek yogurt
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
For filling
8 ounces cream cheese
3 cups powdered sugar
3 tbsp key lime juice
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicon sheets.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flours, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In a large bowl, beat together yogurt, vegetable oil, eggs and vanilla extract. Add flour mixture to the large bowl in three additions. Place batter in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Drop 1 tbsp of batter, about 2-inches apart on the lined baking sheets. Bake cookies for 10 minutes, until fluffy and set.
While cookies cool, prepare the filling. Beat cream cheese and key lime juice until smooth. Add powdered sugar one cup at a time. You may not need to add all of the powdered sugar, add enough until the filling is creamy and smooth, not runny.
Match up cookies in pairs of equally sized cookies. Add 1 tbsp of filling and sandwich the cookies together.
