2 cups of fresh or frozen blueberries
In large mixing bowl combine cake mix,flour
and baking powder.Add other ingredients that are listed on the cake mix box:eggs,water and oil. Mix well for several minutes. Fold in blueberries. Drop on greased cookie sheet and place in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
Filling ingredients
4 egg whites
1 1/2 cups shortening
4 cups powdered sugar
2 t.vanilla
Beat egg whites until just past the stiff peak stage add shortening powdered sugar and vanilla. Slowly mix till sugar is combined.Beat on high for several minutes adding powdered sugar as needed to reach desired consistency.
Frost the inside cake..
These make about 14 I use a med ice cream scoop..

Yum, they are delicious! I had to leave the house before I read that you use 2 whoopies per serving, so I goofed and split them and used a bottom, covered by filling, then sat the top at an angle. Addwed some fresh sliced strawberies and more blueberries to teh plate and it was a great dessert for family on Saturday night. The 2-1/2-year- old loved them, the aunt and uncle loved them, and DH got two on his plate (without filling) for creakfast this morning! Great recipe, and thanks for the ideas to try different fruits in the batter.

Brenda, how in the world did you come up with the recipe name, or do I dare ask? I didn't think about it until I said it out loud, as in, I'm making blueberry whoopies, and it reminded me of that old game show (The NewlyWed Game) reference!
