Pumpkin Spice Whoppies with Creamy Marshmallow Spice Filling

1 C. Canned Pumpkin
1/3 C. Butter, Soft
1 Pkg Spice Cake Mix
2 Eggs
1/2 C. Milk
1 Recipe Marshmallow-Spice Filling

Preheat oven to 375. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or foil (grease foil). In a large mixing bowl beat pumpkin and butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add cake mix, eggs and milk; beat on low speed until combined, and then on medium speed for 1 minute.

Using a 1 T cookie scoop or by the heaping tablespoon, drop mounds of batter 3" apart on cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until set and lightly browned around edges. Carefully remove from parchment or foil; cool on wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter, lining cooled cookie sheets with new paper as needed.
