Red Velvet Whoopie Pies

Red Velvet Whoopie Pies

1 (18.25 ounce) box red velvet cake mix
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon bourbon
1/2 cup butter, softened
4 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Enough milk to make frosting spreadable

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Mix together cake mix, eggs, oil, and bourbon in a large bowl. Roll the dough into balls the size of walnuts. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.

Bake in the preheated oven until the tops start to crack, about 8 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

Combine the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla and enough milk to make a spreadable frosting. Use frosting to sandwich the cookies together in pairs.

These were Jennifer's favorites of all our cookies this year!
