Football Whoopie Pies

Since this Sunday is Super Bowl Sunday, I will be making quite a few desserts for home and some parties. The first thing I am making today is Whoopie Pies. They are basically cake batter baked like cookie dough.

Ingredients:
1 Pouch of Devil's Food Cake Mix
1 Canister of Vanilla Frosting
1 Small bag of Sprinkles or Candy Bits
3 Tablespoons Oil
1/4 Cup Water
2 Large Eggs
1 Pouch of Cake Mate Easy Squeeze White Decorating Icing
Cake Mate Removable Tips

1) Set your oven to 375 degrees. Prepare cookie sheet to keep cookies from sticking by lightly coating with no-stick cooking spray or a thing coat of butter.
Instead of using a cookie sheet, I used a pan specially for whoopie pies. You can purchase these pans almost anywhere that sells baking supplies.
2) Combine Devil's Food cake mix, oil, water and eggs in a large bowl until moistened. Beat with electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes or whisk by hand for 2 minutes. Drop batter by rounded teaspoons onto prepared cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten each mound with a spoon in a circular motion. If the batter is not level, the pies will come out as a weird shape.
3) Bake for 7 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center of cookie comes out clean. Cool 2 minutes before placing onto wire racks to cool completely.
4) Turn half of the cookies over so they lay flat side up. Put a thick coat of frosting on the flat side of the cookies you turned over. Smooth frosting with a knife. Top with remaining 12 cookies, pressing lightly to turn them into Whoopie Pies.
5) Place candy bits in a shallow dish. Gently roll edges to coat frosting.
6) Open the pouch of icing and select the tip that is used to write. Create lines of a football on the top side of the pies.
