Red Velvet Whoopie Pies
Whoopie Pies are a family favorite, but classic whoopie pies are so large and most of the time people end up cutting them in half.
So, I decided to make a mini version to bring to my Sister’s house on Christmas Eve.
They are still about the size of a standard cookie, but mini compared to a full size whoopie pie!
I have a printable recipe card attached to make it easier to save to Pinterest, or print if you like. Enjoy!

Soft and moist mini red velvet whoopie pie perfect for a party!
Ingredients
- 1 box Duncan Hines® Red Velvet Premium Cake Mix
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 container Duncan Hines® Creamy Home-Style Vanilla Frosting
Instructions
- Melt butter; set aside to cool. Place cake mix, egg, cooled butter and vanilla in large mixing bowl. Mix by hand until well blended and dough is formed.
- Form dough into a smooth 12-inch log on wax paper, making sure it is even in thickness. Wrap in wax paper; seal in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1 hour or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease baking sheets. Unwrap dough log and set on wax paper. Using a sharp knife, cut into 24 slices about 1/4" thick. Shape into small round pieces. Place on cool baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
- Bake, 1 sheet at a time, in center of oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
- Spread frosting on half the cookies. Top each frosted cookie with another cookie. Gently press together.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
I would love to hear if you give this recipe a try.
The great thing about using a box mix, aside from the ease, is you can use any flavor you like.
I’m definitely going to make german chocolate for Christmas Eve as well.
What flavor mix would you like to try? My mind is spinning now with ideas.
How about strawberry, pumpkin spice, etc, etc.
