Ingredients
- 1 box Devil’s Food cake mix 15.25 oz
- ¾ cup water
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 box chocolate fudge instant pudding 4-serving size
- 2 tubs vanilla cake icing 16 oz each
- Orange food coloring gel
- Edible black glitter
- Powdered sugar for stenciling, optional
- Black licorice for spider legs, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cake mix, water, vegetable oil, eggs, and pudding mix. Beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth.
- Scoop the batter into rounds on lined baking sheets—18 for larger Whoopie Pies or 36 for smaller ones—keeping them uniform in size.
- Bake for 7–10 minutes, until the tops spring back when gently pressed. Transfer to a cooling rack and let cool completely.
- Tint the vanilla icing with orange food coloring gel, mixing until the color is bright and streak-free.
- Spread or pipe a thick layer of frosting onto the flat side of one cake, then top with another to form a sandwich. Repeat with the rest.
- Finish with edible black glitter, candy eyes, or black licorice legs for spiders. Use powdered sugar stencils for extra festive designs.
