I can confirm that Whoopie Pies are a staple in northeastern Indiana. My Mom used to make both the chocolate and the pumpkin versions. I believe that the local version used the Crisco-and-sugar mixture in the middle.

I’ve made these before using my grandmother’s recipe. She was from SW Ohio and the filling was the Crisco/sugar mixture. Thanks for bring back a good memory.
