- 1/2 cup butter {softened}
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 3 tbsp all purpose flour

Cookies
Preheat oven to 350° and cover baking sheets with silicone liners or parchment paper.
In a medium bowl combine cake mix, butter, eggs, sour cream and flour. Using a hand held mixer {or mix by hand}, mix the ingredients until just combined. There may be small bits of butter in the dough.
Scoop dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet using a small cookie scoop {you should get 48 small cookie mounds}. Refrigerate the dough scoops for at least 60 minutes.
Once chilled, roll cookie dough scoop in your hand and make a tall cookie dough mound. Add a dozen cookie scoops to a cookie sheet and bake for 9-10 minutes or until the edges and top of the cookie are set and the edges are just starting to turn golden brown. Move cookies immediately to a cooling rack to cool completely. Continue until all of the cookies are baked.
Frosting
In a medium bowl combine butter and cream cheese. Use a hand held mixer to mix until creamy and smooth. Add powdered sugar and mix until completely incorporated.
In a large Ziploc bag {or food processor}, crush Golden Oreo cookies. Add crushed cookies to the frosting and mix until the cookies are evenly incorporated. Put frosting into a piping bag {or large Ziploc bag} and cut a large triangle {a small triangle won't allow the cookies to go through}.
Finishing the Whoopie Pies
- Use a medium cookie scoop for 12 sandwich cookies. Bake for 11-12 minutes.
