Have you guys ever had the problem of deciding between a cookie and a cake? Well, why not have both? Whoopie pies are like a cake-cookie-sandwich. It’s made with cake batter, but in a form of a sandwich that’s easy to hold and eat. There are no forks, knives, or plates needed. Just pick up with your hands and chomp away!
These cake mix whoopie pies are fun to work with because you can easily change of the flavors, frosting, and decorations. You can make them themed for a sports game by simply adding some food coloring to the frosting to change the color. You can add the sprinkles on top of the whoopie pie prior to baking if you want the decorations on top of the pie instead of the side. You can try different cake mixes and even do dual combination whoopie pies, like half red velvet and half funfetti!

Hi Kim.
The recipe looks yummmy, however; I don’t have Pillsbury™ Purely Simple® Chocolate Cake & Cupcake Mix and frosting mix. What should I do instead of them?
