- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- ½ cup water
Cream Filling
- 4 oz cream cheese, room temp.
- 4 ounces butter, unsalted - room temp.

Instructions
Cakes
- Pre-heat oven to 350 F.
- Mix Funfetti Cake Mix with water, eggs, vegetable oil in mixer until well combined.
- On parchment lined baking sheet, place two tablespoons of batter in circle, about 1½ inches in diameter.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes (9 minutes was the magic number for me) until the bottom edges are barely browning. Remove and cool on pan/paper before transferring to cooling rack.
- While cakes are cooling, make frosting:
Cream Cheese Frosting
- In mixer, combine cream cheese, butter and vanilla until combined.
- Slowly add powdered sugar and stir on slow speed until combined.
- Mix on medium speed for a minute.
- Transfer to piping bag.
Finished Cakes
- Pipe cream onto bottom of one cake and place second on as top (don't overfill).
- Microwave shortening, candy coating for 30 seconds, stir well. Repeat 30 second microwave and stir as needed until just melted and combined. (1 minute for me)
- Cool coating to handle.
- Dip whoopie pies in coating and place on parchment-lined cookie sheet.
- Place dipped pies in refridgerator/freezer to cool and set coating quickly. Repeat dips until coated to own preference. (three for mine)
- On the last coat, immediately sprinkle with sprinkles.
- Cool and enjoy! Stores well in container for several days in refrigerator. Server at room temp. for best taste.
