Cake Batter Mint Whoopie Pies

Looking for a last minute St. Paddy's Day treat? I have just the thing, Cake Batter Mint Whoopie Pies! If you haven't had an opportunity to try my Cake Batter Cookies recipe, here is your chance. This recipe is quick, easy, and if you bake a lot, like me, you probably have all of the ingredients just waiting in the pantry and fridge!

Cake Batter Mint Whoopie Pies


Directions:

For the cookies
Beat together your softened butter and sugar using an electric mixer until well combined. Add cake mix, flour, salt, and vanilla, mix thoroughly. Add up to 5 tablespoons of milk or more if needed to make a dough consistency. Roll dough into one inch small balls and place onto a baking sheet. Slightly flatten your dough balls. I like to use a rubber baking mat so that the bottoms don't burn. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and bake your cookies for 9 to 10 minutes. Place on a cooling rack and set aside.
 
For the filling
Beat together your softened cream cheese, butter, sugar, and peppermint until well combined. Add in a few drops of green food dye and stir in. Add more food coloring until the desired color is made.

Once your cookies have cooled, pipe the filling onto one cookie half and sandwich with the other. You can add green and white sprinkles to make them more festive, but it's not required. Refrigerate your pies before serving so the filling will set. After refrigerating for about an hour, I like to store them in a Tupperware at room temp so that the cookies don't harden. This recipe yields about 8 medium sized whoopie pies, it just depends on how big you make your cookie halves. Perfect with a tall glass of milk and don't forget a napkin, that filling likes to escape! Enjoy!

  13. Any idea how much this batch makes? Also, just to clarify, are you saying that we should put them in the fridge to help the frosting set up but then take them back out and store them on the counter? Thanks!

  14. Hi there! This recipe made about 8 medium whoopie pies, it just depends on how big you make the cookie halves. I did store them in the fridge for a like an hour before eating so that the filing would set. Afterwards I stored them in a Tupperware to keep the cookies from going hard. I hope that answers your question!

  16. Wow, I feel dumb now. I looked and looked through your instructions before asking and couldn't find out how many it made and now I see it. Silly me. Sorry. Just FYI, I used my small cookie scoop which makes about 1 1/2" cookies and flattened them a little bit and it made 28 cookies which were 2 1/2" in size after being baked. Thanks so much, they're yummy!

  21. I was a HIV-AIDS patient and I got it from cheating on my wife. It was sort of a payback but a week later I was told by a friend that the person who I cheated with had the HIV-AIDS virus and did not tell me. I was so stupid by not using a condom I thought since he was an old school friend he was trustworthy. But I was wrong. I cried and cried. Two days later, I got a phone call from my friend and he told me about a person who is known by another friend, who can help me. I could not let my wife know what I was going through. I finally got his email address: oseremenspelltemple@gmail.com and I emailed this man my story and he replied me immediately saying i should be calm and told me that everything will be OK. I could not come to terms with what I was hearing but then I concluded it did not matter because I was so broken I just needed help. I was going out of my mind literally. I was confused with what he was telling me, but I listened. He told me about some materials i need to buy that he needed to cast the spell and I said OK. I bought the materials to him, I sent down my picture to him and my positive result sheet and he replied me that i am going to be negative under 3days. I message Him every 2hours for 2day and I knew he thought that I was crazy but I did care I needed a shoulder. Behold, the third day he messaged me i should go for a test that i will be negative. My marriage could be broken because of a stupid mistake and my life was on the line. I remembered when I was going to get the results of my re-test I called him up again and told him that I was going to get my results today and his reply was “so" and that everything will be as he explained. I knew then that he was getting tired of me calling him, maybe I was wrong. Well I got my results and the first person I called was him - again. As he said hello I started to cry and cry. I could not believe it. I was given a second chance in life.This man is a great spiritual HIV/AIDS healer, his healing spell on aids healing is very powerful .please brothers and sister, contact Dr Ose oseremenspelltemple@gmail.com
