Ingredients

For the cookies:

1 box spice cake mix you can substitute yellow cake mix
1 15oz can pure pumpkin pureé
½ cup vegetable oil

For the filling:

1 small box cream cheese instant pudding mix or substitute vanilla
2 cups heavy whipping cream

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350º
In large mixing bowl, mix together cake mix, pumpkin pureé and vegetable oil until well combined. Cookie batter will be sticky.
Spoon 2 Tablespoons at a time onto cookie sheet that has been greased or lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until cookies are fully baked and spongy. Remove from oven and let cool completely on cooling racks.
Meantime, mix together instant pudding mix and heavy whipping cream in medium size bowl. It's helpful if you use an electric hand mixer.
Mix until stiff peaks form. When cookies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of cream cheese filling onto the flat side of a cookie, then top with another cookie.
Repeat until all pumpkin whoopie pies are made. Store in refrigerator and enjoy.
