Twinkie Cake

[Wanderlost]

Much to my amazement, this was actually rather tasty.

1 1/2 boxes Twinkies (15)
1 large box strawberry Jello
1 large box instant vanilla pudding
2 cups whipped cream (add a little sweetener if you like)

Line 9x13 inch cake pan with Twinkies. Mix Jello with 2 cups hot water. Stir until dissolved, then pour in 1 cup cold water. Pour over Twinkies and refrigerate 30 minutes.

Mix pudding as directed. Spread over Twinkie mixture. Top with whipped cream. Refrigerate.

Regan's alterations:
Substitute pound cake or loaf style angel food cake for the Twinkies.
Spread 2 cups fresh or frozen and defrosted sliced strawberries over the cake, then pour on the Jello.

But it wouldn't be any good without the Twinkies...;)


To O.P.:

I LOVE this recipe...not a single saving "healthy" thing one can say about it, which makes it as delightfully sinful as a really good dessert should be! 🙂

I just might try Regan's alteration. Sound just right for Wed nitht pot luck. Just a couple more tweaks this could be sugar-free.
