Turn the mixer back on to medium speed and beat until well mixed, 1 to 2 minutes. With the mixer off, add the milk. Mix together on low speed until just incorporated.
• Flip half of the cookies over and spread the bottoms with the filling. Top each with another cookie--bottom facing in--to make a sandwich.
• Put the almonds on a plate and roll the edge of each whoopee pie in the almonds to coat.
