1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ devil’s food cake mix
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
2 tablespoons red food color
1 box (4-serving size) chocolate instant pudding and pie filling mix

Filling

1 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 cups marshmallow creme
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

1/2 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup fresh raspberries

Steps

1

Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with cooking parchment paper or lightly spray with cooking spray.

In large bowl, beat cookie ingredients with electric mixer on low speed until moistened; beat 1 minute longer on high speed. Drop batter by 1/4 cupfuls 2 inches apart onto cookie sheets.

In large bowl, beat filling ingredients with electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy. For each sandwich cookie pie, spread about 1/4 cup filling on bottom of 1 cooled cookie. Top with blueberries, raspberries and second cookie, bottom side down. Store covered in refrigerator.

If you'd like smaller pies, use 2 tablespoons batter; bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set.
