Whoopie Pies (Easy)


I used a Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge Cake mix with Butterscotch Instant Pudding Mix because that is what I had...  Old Goat gave the recipe two thumbs up and said that they taste more like a "Suzy Q" than a Whoopie Pie... Filling makes the difference.  You can also make this with a Marshmallow Fluff

Cake:
1 box chocolate fudge or devil's food cake mix
1 sm. box instant chocolate pudding mix
1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 lrg. eggs
1 cup water

Cake Instructions:
Mix all ingredients together with a electric mixer for approximately 3 to 5 minutes.Spoon onto a greased cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees. When baked place cookies on waxed paper or rack to cool.


For Filling

8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups confectioners' sugar
To make the filling, cream together the cream cheese, butter and vanilla; sift in the powdered sugar and beat until smooth.



To assemble whoopie pies, spread or pipe filling on one cake and then top with another cake.


Serve immediately or refrigerate and then bring to room temperature before serving.
