How to make red velvet whoopie pies with a cake mix:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line two or three cookie trays with parchment and set aside.
2. Combine the first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk together until the batter is smooth.
3. Drop by heaping tablespoon full onto your prepared sheets leaving at least a 2 inch space between each cookie.
4. Bake 10-12 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
5. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of frosting between two cookies. Continue with remaining cookies.
This recipe really does taste best with cream cheese frosting. You can find pre made at the store or give my homemade cream cheese frosting recipe a try!
How to store whoopie pies:
Storing whoopie pies is key to keeping them fresh. It is best to keep cooled cookies in an air tight container UNFILLED at room temperature.
Once you have added frosting or filling, keep the cookies stored in the refrigerator.

Remember that they will expand during baking so leave enough room for them to spread out. As an Amazon Associate and member of other affiliate programs, I earn from qualifying purchases.
