I made these after having had them pinned for YEARS just this past weekend. They were delicious, however, I would probably tweak the frosting portion a little bit as it was really sugary. I’d probably use less shortening and just a smidge of butter but not so much to change the consistency of the filling. The cookie portion was so good, and I do plan to make these again!

In reply to Bindi. Hi Bindi, are you able to source white or vanilla cake mix? That will work in its place. Otherwise, omit and sub with flour. It just won't have a Funfetti flavor as much.

thank you for this recipe,

I am not able to get the Funfetti cake mix, can i leave that out totally? or is there a substitute for that?

I don’t own a whoopee pie pan, so I improvised with standard muffin tins. I got 22 out of this recipe. I followed directions except that I cut the amount of sprinkles in half and still thought there were more than enough. These are really sweet and would maybe try making them in mini-muffin tins next time. I pressed 1 TBS of batter into the muffin tin and topped it with the frosting. I took another TBS of batter and flattened it in my hands and then gently placed it over the frosting and pressed to seal the edges. Total baking time was 15 minutes.

In reply to thedomesticrebel. That's what I am thinking too. Nothing to do but try again!!! after all, I have leftover cake mix to use anyway. Thank you so much for getting back to me!

In reply to Julia. Julia, I'm sorry that your frosting melted! I've tested this cookie recipe several times and each time, the frosting has remained in my cookies as a layer. Perhaps it wasn't frozen solid enough? Otherwise, I apologize, but I'm glad the cookies are delicious! :)

Ok so the cookies are outta this world, but the frosting just melts right in. I used crisco shortening too!! It’s really possible to put frozen frosting in a 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes and have it not melt and seep into the cookie?? SAD!
