Easy Whoopie Pies with Peanut Butter Filling



I know one little boy who adores whoopie pies! If you know anyone who does, (and who doesn't?) use this super-easy recipe to whip up some fast!

Ingredients:
Whoopie pies:
1/3 cup butter, softened
3 eggs
1/2 milk
1 chocolate cake mix

Filling:
1 cup peanut butter
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
2-4 cups powdered sugar
1-2 Tbsp milk (if needed)

For whoopie pies:
Cream together butter and eggs until smooth. Add cake mix and mix thoroughly. Slowly add milk while mixing. Batter will be denser than cake batter, but smoother than cookie dough.

Spoon batter by tablespoons onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Leave plenty of room-- batter will expand.

Bake at 325 F for 10 minutes. Let cool on cookie sheet 5 minutes before filling.

For filling:
Cream together peanut butter and cream cheese. Add one cup powdered sugar, mix. Add powdered sugar by 1/2 cups, until desired consistency. Should filling become too dense, add 1-2 tablespoons milk and mix. To keep filling light, avoid over-mixing.
