making whoopie...pies

Love red velvet? Of course you do.  Here's an interesting twist on the classic combined with a childhood favorite.  These treats are easy to make and can be created for big hands or little ones.  

Ingredients

• 1 box of red velvet cake mix
• 3/4 cup of water
• 1/2 cup of vegetable oil 
• 3 eggs
• 1 box (4-serving size) instant chocolate pudding mix

Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease baking sheets.  In a large bowl, mix all of the ingredients until a smooth batter.

Pour batter in a plastic resealable bag.  Seal baggie and push batter to one corner.  Cut corner to create a small hole. 

Pipe batter into small circle (this will desire how big you want your pies), about 1-inch apart to allow for spreading. 

Bake 10-12 minutes.  Cool 2 minutes then place on a cooling rack.  Make sure to cool completely before filling.  

Once cooled, spread frosting on the flat side of one cookie.  Top with a second cookie, flat side down to make a sandwich.  

 

 Enjoy!
