Twinkie molds (aluminum foil
Will do in a pinch)
Nonstick cooking spray
The fancy Twinkie molds are nice if you're going to be making them a
lot, and they sure cut down on waste. But for my first time out, I
decided to make them out of what I already had on hand: aluminum foil.
The trick for making a Twinkie mold from is quite simple, and easy to
get the hang of. And if youre making Twinkies for the legions, I
recommend making t he half-sized molds that I used. In fact, just do
it that way. You don't need to be eating that much Twinkie! Then you
can have two.
Cut 24 9" sheets of aluminum foil. Fold each piece of aluminum foil
in half twice. Wrap the folded foil around a small spice bottle to
create a mold. Leave the top of the mold open for pouring in the
batter. Repeat.
Arrange on a cookie sheet or in a shallow pan. Spray molds with
nonstick cooking spray.
Preheat the oven to 325F (160C).
Cake - Whip egg whites on high until stiff. Add cake mix and water,
and beat on medium speed until completely blended, 2 min. Divide
batter evenly among the baking pan wells and bake at 325F (160C)
until cakes spring back when touched, a toothpick inserted into the
center comes out clean, and cakes are golden brown, 20 to 22 min.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 min; then loosen from the
sides by running a knife along the edge of the pan. Invert onto a
rack, remove cakes, and cool completely.
Filling - Beat together the shortening and margarine with mixer until
well combined and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and beat until
completely light and fluffy, 5 min. Add the vanilla and beat for
another 2 min. Once cakes are cool, flip each over, and with a straw
or a skewer, make two incisions running the length of the cake (three
for full sized Twinkies).
Scoop filling into a pastry bag fitted with a medium-size plain tip
(or snip the corner off of a small plastic bag). Place the tip into
each incision, and press cream into the incisions until full. When
cakes are completely full, turn them back over and serve.
Store any leftovers (as if) in an airtight container.
I hope you enjoy your new homemade Twinkies!
