Ingredients Needed
Please note that you can find a printable list of ingredients needed and full recipe with instructions below.
- 1 box of strawberry cake mix (Do not follow box instructions)
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 1/2 cup of water
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 can vanilla frosting
How to Make These Strawberry Whoopie Pies
STEP ONE: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Then in a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, eggs, water, melted butter, and flour. The addition of the melted butter and flour will help turn your cake mix into a whoopie pie.
STEP TWO: The batter should be thick. Spoon onto a cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
STEP THREE: In a small saucepan, add the strawberries and sugar and cook over medium-low heat until soft, stir in the cornstarch, bring to a boil, and reduce to simmer. Cook until the sauce starts to thicken. Remove from heat. Chill.
STEP FOUR: Once the strawberry sauce is cold. Mix about 2 tablespoons of the sauce into the frosting.
STEP FIVE: Spoon onto whoopie pie bottoms and the top. You can use the extra sauce as a dipping sauce.

I’m confused. In the instructions #3 and #7 you say to bake the cookies. Are we baking these twice? And are we adding the strawberry sauce to the cookie batter, or just spreading it onto them (#6)?
Hi Susan,
You should be. I am so sorry and thank you for picking up my error. I am not sure how or why I added baking them twice. It is only once. Also, you will be adding in about 2 tables of the sauce to your frosting mix and then spreading on to the cookies.
I have updated the instructions.
Is there water in this? None listed under ingredients but instructions say to mix in water w cake mix, egg, flour and butter. Please clarify. Am dying to try this.
OH DEAR!!!! Yes, 1/2 of cup of water. I apologize. I see I added a 1/2 of ______. It was blank. Have fun and please let me know how they turn out.
