Steps:
- For the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat 2 baking sheets with cooking spray.
- Beat the cake mix, eggs, butter and 1/3 cup water in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and no bits of dry cake mix are left. Drop the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, using about a tablespoonful for each cookie (a small ice cream scoop will make this task easier) and spacing them about 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake until set around the edges but still soft in the center, about 8 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely (the rounded tops will sink slightly). Continue to bake cookies with the remaining batter.
- For the filling: Melt the chocolate and butter in a medium bowl in the microwave in 1-minute increments, stirring after each, until smooth. Beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla together with an electric mixer on medium-high speed in a large bowl until smooth. Pour the chocolate-butter mixture into the cream cheese mixture and mix until smooth.
- To assemble: Spread about 1 tablespoon of the filling on the flat side of half the cookies. Sandwich with the remaining cookies, pressing slightly so the filling squishes to the edge. Roll the filling edge in sprinkles to coat. Serve or refrigerate up to overnight.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Grease and line 2 10-inch (25 cm) round cake pans with parchment paper.
- Make the whoopie pie: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, salt, baking soda, and brown sugar, making sure there are no lumps.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, then pour in the water, vinegar, vanilla and oil to the well. Whisk to combine, working slowly to avoid clumps.
- Scoop 2½ cups (600 g) of batter into the center of each cake pan. Use an offset spatula or a knife to spread the edges of the batter just to the edges of the pans. Do not level the top of the cake, to help create a domed shape.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make the filling: In a large bowl, combine the butter and marshmallow fluff and cream with an electric hand mixer for 2-3 minutes, until fully combined. Sift in the powdered sugar, then beat for another 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Transfer the filling to a piping bag or zip-top bag. Cut a 2-inch (5 cm) wide opening on a corner.
- Invert a cake onto a serving platter so the domed side is facing down. Pipe a thick spiral of filling onto the cake, leaving a ¼-inch (½ cm) border around the edge, and smooth with an offset spatula. Place the remaining cake on top of the filling, domed side up, and push down slightly to attach.
- Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!

BAKERY STYLE WHOOPIE PIE CAKE
I found this recipe on a website for parents. The original was for the actual Whoopie pies, but I am too lazy for all of that. I altered a little and made a cake out of it. It is awesome and so worth the work. Note: use real butter, makes it much better.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. This is especially true for the butter, milk, and eggs.
- Make sure the butter is softened before creaming it with the sugar. This will help to create a smooth and fluffy batter.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cakes tough.
- Bake the cakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the frosting cool completely before spreading it on the cakes. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Serve the whoopie pies immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
