Super easy!!!

1 box chocolate cake mix

1 small chocolate instant pudding

3 eggs (large)

1/2 c. vegetable oil (no substitutions)

3/4 c. water

Heat oven to 350 degrees

Mix all ingredients until smooth. Batter will be thicker.

Set aside.

Line cookie sheets with parchment paper - spray lightly with Pam.

Scoop batter using 1" cookie scoop.  Drop onto trays.

Bake 10-12 minutes.  (my oven took 12 minutes)

they should look like this pic in top left:

FILLING:

2 sticks butter (not margarine) softened

2.5 c. confectioners sugar

1 tsp vanilla 

1 7-7.5 oz jar of marshmallow fluff (I use Kraft Jet Puff)

Cream butter well, add conf sugar (slowly) until well combined & smooth, scrape bowl.  Add vanilla and jar of marshmallow creme.

Mix until smooth - i tasted it to make sure right sweetness.  I added a little extra 10x sugar - 

Once smooth - I placed in pastry bag with star tip and piped onto sandwiches.  Rolled edges in sprinkles.

They are easy and delicious!  Happy Baking! Enjoy!!!

EDITED:  FYI:  I guess you could use a canned icing any flavor BUT I don't like the taste canned icing

I'm drooling! I'll be the one to ask for the lemon cupcake recipe, please. Lemon and blueberries are my favorite. Thank you!

I just had a thought -- make cupcakes & fill with the creme.  Would need to fill from top but still would be enough center.

Then ice with a ganache glaze...would be like a hostess cupcake I loved as a kid 🙂🙂🙂🙂

@homedecor1  My mother in law used to say if you can read you can bake...I disproved this  theory several times lol  I'm a great cook but you have inspired me to try to bake again!
