Easy Valentine Treats

Bakerella doesn't leave the baking-challenged behind. If you aren't a baking genius, then give these "Easy Valentine Treats" a try. She even uses a box cake mix in her recipe.

All of you need to make these special red velvet moon pies is a red velvet cake mix, butter, eggs, cream cheese, confectioner's sugar, and vanilla. I bet you could even use cream cheese frosting from a jar to make this recipe even easier.
