Whoopie Pie Cake


Happy Thursday! 
First off I want to give my daughter Mallory a happy birthday, she is 8!
I made this cake for her after she said she wanted a chocolate cake with something in the middle and I came across this cake and I just had to make it!  I mean look at it, it is divine. 
Do you like whoopie pies?  Yes?  You will LOVE this cake. 

    Cake
  • 1 box Chocolate cake mix (prepared per package directions) + 1 extra egg
  • *cocoa powder for dusting the pan
  • Filling
  • 1 cup butter, room temperature
  • 2 cups Marshmallow Fluff
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • Ganache
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Cake
Preheat oven to 350°
Grease 2 9x13 or 2 9x9 round sized pans with butter and dust with cocoa powder, set aside.
Prepare cake according to package directions, but add in an extra egg to the mix.
Split the batter evenly between the 2 pans and bake for 15-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow cakes to cool completely.
Filling
In stand mixer beat butter and Fluff together until smooth.
Turn mixer to low and slowly add in powdered sugar. Turning mixer back up, continue mixing for 30-60 seconds until smooth.
Spread the filling on top of one of the cakes. Top the filling with the other cake.
Ganache
In small saucepan bring the heavy cream to almost a boil. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips. Allow to cool for 10 minutes and then pour over top of cake.
