Directions

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large cookie sheets with cooking parchment paper.
2 In medium bowl, beat 2 tablespoons butter and the granulated sugar with electric mixer on low speed until light and fluffy. Add remaining cookie ingredients. Beat on medium speed 4 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally, until smooth. Onto cookie sheets, drop 28 slightly rounded tablespoonfuls of dough at least 2 inches apart.
3 Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until tops spring back when lightly touched. Cool 2 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks; cool completely.
4 In medium bowl, beat cream cheese, 1/4 cup butter and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla with electric mixer on low speed until well combined. Slowly add powdered sugar, beating on low speed until incorporated. Increase speed to medium; beat 1 minute.
5 For each whoopie pie, spread 1 generous tablespoon filling on bottom of 1 cookie; place second cookie, bottom side down, on filling. Store in refrigerator. Sprinkle with additional powdered sugar, if desired.

These whoopie pie cookies are wonderful! I baked them Xmas 2011 and can't wait for Valentine's Day 2012. Try them, you'll love them.

I left out the food coloring and also used a different frosting recipe for the filling. When I made the batter, it wasn't as stiff as I expected so I baked one cookie to test it. It looked good but wasn't very sweet so I added about 1/4 cup of sugar to the batter/dough. I found the cookies to be verrrry dry. They did taste okay though, especially with the filling. If I make them again, I'll try adding more butter or some oil to moisten them up. I wouldn't suggest making this recipe unless you're willing to play with it to make it better.

I wanted to make these for my mother (a diabetic) using splenda. these didn't come out like the ones using the cake mix - not at all flat or too fluffy. I think the liquid needs to be increased. will try these again with more liquid.
