Pillsbury Funfetti Whoopie Pie Review

Halloween is over a month away and my local Walmart (along with pretty much every store everywhere) is already filled to the brim with Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas stuff. But, I couldn't pass these up when I saw them on an end cap though. I've been wanting to make homemade whoopie pies forever but just haven't and I saw this simple little kit for $2.98 and thought they'd make a tasty and fun afternoon project.

And they're adorable and festive too!

They were so easy, I didn't even document the process. The little cakey pieces baked in about five minutes in my oven and quickly cooled.

And the taste? Well... I wasn't impressed. The icing was pretty awful, actually. It had a metallic-sweetness to it that was overpowering and really took over the entire flavor of the pie. If you're thinking about getting this kit, I wouldn't. Or at least save yourself from this frosting and buy a tub of frosting that actually tastes good. 

But you can't deny, these little whoopies are damn adorable. I'm not a sprinkle-person myself usually but they were really cute with the holiday sprinkles. 

I'm actually looking up some whoopie pie recipes on Pinterest and I'd love to review another recipe!
