How to Make Pb J Whoopie Pies Cake Mix

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, oil, and water according to cake mix instructions. Beat until smooth.
  3. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each.
  4. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Let the whoopie pie cakes cool completely on a wire rack.
  6. While the cakes cool, prepare the peanut butter filling. In a medium bowl, beat together peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add butter, if desired, for a smoother consistency.
  7. Once the cakes are completely cool, spoon a generous amount of peanut butter filling onto the flat side of one cake.
  8. Top with another cake to create a whoopie pie.
  9. Spread a thin layer of reduced-sugar jelly on top of the peanut butter filling before adding the second cake (optional).
  10. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
