I wanted something different to bake, so instead of the traditional whoopie pie (chocolate cake and white filling), I opted for yellow cake and chocolate frosting.   And these are made with a cake mix.  You can use any flavor!

• Whoppie pie ingredients list
• 1 cake mix
• 3.4 Oz instant pudding mix
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup canola oil
• 2/3 cup water

Directions – preheat oven to 350 degrees.   Spray a whoopie pie pan with baking spray, or line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  Set aside.  In a bowl, combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, oil and water.   Scoop out 2 tbs batter into prepared whoopie pie pans or parchment covered cookie sheet. 

Bake 10 minutes, no longer.  Cool completely.  

For the frosting,  remember to scoop your powdered sugar from the bag into measuring cup so you get the right amount.

• Chocolate filling list
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1/2 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
• 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 4 to 6 tbs heavy cream

Directions – in a bowl, cream butter and cocoa.  Blend in powdered sugar, cream and vanilla.  You may need to add more powdered sugar or cream until you get the right amount.  Then assemble the whoopie pies!

Place one piece flat side up

Spread filling on top.
