Ingredients
1 package (2-layer size) yellow cake mix
1 package (3.4 oz) JELL-O Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/3 cup oil
1/3 cup water
3 eggs
1 package (8 oz) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1 jar (7 oz) JET-PUFFED Marshmallow Creme
1/3 cup finely chopped crystallized ginger
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tub (8 oz) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed
1/2 cup multi-colored sprinkles or colored sugar
Directions

1. Heat oven to 350ºF.

 

2. Beat first 7 ingredients with mixer until blended. Scoop into 32 mounds, 3 inches apart, on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray, using about 2 Tbsp. for each.

 

3. Bake 12 to 14 min. or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool on baking sheet 2 min. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.

 

4. Beat cream cheese, marshmallow creme, ginger and cinnamon in large bowl with mixer until blended. Whisk in COOL WHIP.

 

5. Spread 3 Tbsp. onto flat side of 1 cake; top with second cake, flat side down. Roll edge in sprinkles. Repeat with remaining cakes. Keep refrigerated.

 

Tip 1: Use 1 pkg. (3.4 oz.) JELL-O SIMPLY GOOD Vanilla Bean Flavor Pudding.

 

Tip 2: You'll know it's a special occasion when you get to enjoy one of these delicious pumpkin-flavored treats.

 

Tip 3: Substitute KRAFT Caramel Bits or toffee bits for the chopped ginger, stirring them into the cream cheese mixture along with the COOL WHIP.

 

Tip 4: Any leftover whoopie pies can be frozen. No need to thaw them before serving - they're equally as delicious when served frozen.

 

Tip 5: Use a small ice cream scoop to quickly portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet.

 

Tip 6: The cakes can be baked ahead of time. Cool, then freeze up to 2 weeks. When freezing, place in single layer in pan to prevent them from sticking together. Thaw completely before using to assemble the whoopie pies.
