MINI CHOCOLATE WHOOPIE PIES WITH
CARAMEL FILLING

Whoopie pies are not pies at all but a cake-like sandwich cookie. Enjoy this chocolate version that is filled with a delicious salted caramel buttercream.

Whoopie Pie:

1 (18.25 ounce) Devil’s food cake mix with pudding
1/2 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter, melted
1/2 cup water
3 LAND O LAKES® All-Natural Eggs
1 to 2 teaspoons sea salt

Filling:

1 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter, softened
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup prepared caramel sauce
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla

Combine cake mix, 1/2 cup melted butter, water and eggs in large bowl; beat at medium speed until smooth. Let batter rest for 30 minutes.

Heat oven to 400°F. Drop batter by slightly rounded teaspoonfuls, 2 inches apart, onto parchment-lined or lightly greased cookie sheets. Sprinkle each cookie with sea salt. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Transfer to wire cooling rack.

Place 1 cup butter in medium bowl. Beat at medium speed until creamy. Reduce speed to low; gradually add powdered sugar. Beat until well mixed. Add caramel sauce, 1 teaspoon sea salt and vanilla. Beat until well mixed.

Pipe or spread rounded teaspoonful filling onto bottom of 1 cookie; place second cookie, bottom-side down over filling. Repeat with remaining cookies and filling.

Yield: 4 1/2 dozen sandwich cookies

Cooks Tip: Letting batter rest allows batter to rise and increase volume of whoopie pies.

Cooks Tip: To make ahead, bake cookies as directed. Cool completely. Place cooled cookies in single layer in resealable plastic freezer bag. Freeze up to 2 months. Let stand at room temperature until thawed. Prepare filling and fill cookies as directed.

Preparation time: 40 minutes; Total time: 2 hours 10 minutes.

Sweet Confections (Virginia) says:

OMG... this recipe is awesome... It worked like a charm. I just added a box of chocolate jello... and let the batter rest for about 10 minutes... then put it in a freezer bag, cut off the tip so they could be somewhat uniform... worked like a charm... the filling.. decreased the confectioners sugar to 2 1/2 cups and added 1 cup of marshmallow fluff.
