Whoopie Pie Redux

Turned out I had all this frosting left over from the last batch of whoopie pies (don't fret, in that post, I gave measurements for 1/2 of what I actually made). So I thought I'd give it another go, since the red velvet pies were very popular around here. This time, I got a box of devil's food cake mix and different shortening. I also followed the recipe (gasp!) and used the correct mixer attachment, with good results.
Generic cake mix is the best; I fell for the butter-flavor shortening, but it's a fancy health-food brand, so it must be okay
This is dough, not batter like last time
Dry dough easily comes out of the spoon
I rolled it into balls... because I like balls
So the parchment trick wasn't too good this time since these needed to cool before they really set
Done
