Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 3 cups powdered sugar
• 1 (15.25 ounce) package spice cake mix (dry)
• 1 ½ cups MUSSELMAN'S® Apple Butter

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat liner.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, apple butter, oil and eggs until smooth. Let stand for 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, a heaping rounded tablespoon at a time. Space them about 2 inches apart. (Using a small scoop will keep the size consistent.)

Step 4

Bake for about 14 minutes and let them cool completely.

Step 5

Frost the flat side of each "pie" half with either the marshmallow fluff (see Note below) or the cream cheese frosting, and place halves together.

Step 6

To make the cream cheese frosting, beat the cream cheese, butter and powdered sugar until fluffy. Add the milk and vanilla, and beat for another 1-2 minutes.

Step 7

Store whoopie pies in sealed container in refrigerator.
