Easy Chocolate Peanut Butter Whoopie Pies

By Addie

Chocolate and peanut butter are so great together, aren’t they?

These kind of remind me of those oatmeal creme pies from Little Debby, but in Chocolate Peanut Butter flavor. Hmmmm…maybe Little Debbie will get wind of these and start making them too. Come on…..Chocolate and Peanut Butter, they just go so well together! Maybe this isn’t technically a whoopie pie, but it does say that whoopie pies may be considered cookies, pies, or cakes and so I think this counts, but call them creme pies if you must.

I love how fast and easy cake mixes can be made into lots of great treats, so these are Whoopie Pies the Easy Way!

Ingredients

• PEANUT BUTTER FILLING:
• 1 box chocolate cake mix (and ingredients on package minus the water)
• 1/2 cup oil
• 3 eggs
• .......................................................
• 1/2 cup peanut
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 cups powdered
• 3 tablespoons milk
• Beat peanut butter and butter together then add powdered sugar and milk and mix until creamy.
• Fill a piping bag and swirl the filling onto the cooled cookies.
• I made 12 whoopie pies, I may have eaten a few so might count may be off. It was for quality control reasons would consume them when warm of course :)

Preparation

Step 1

TO MAKE THE CAKES:

Mix all three ingredients together and place on cookie sheet by two tablespoons sizes balls. Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes, depending on how crispy you’d like them. I baked my for 12 minutes, a little crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, perfect for whoopie pies.

I was in such a hurry, I didn’t even space them out enough, but luckily you can cut them apart when they are warm and it won’t matter, well at least it didn’t matter to me there were still 499 things left to do!
