My roommate Kyle is a huge fan of Twinkies, so I thought making a Twinkies cake would be perfect for today -- his birthday!
I'm not crazy about baking, and the simplicity of this recipe gives me life. I combined Twinkies, Edy's Caramel Delight Ice Cream, and Cool Whip and it turned out great! I'll have to try it with Blue Bunny Birthday Cake Ice Cream next time though...
INGREDIENTS:
5 Twinkies
1 half gallon of ice cream (Edy's Caramel Delight)
1 container of whip topping (Cool Whip)
(Optional) sprinkles, extra caramel, chocolate shavings...etc.
DIRECTIONS:
1.) Line a loaf pan with parchment paper
2.) Place Twinkies on the bottom of the pan
3.) Layer Twinkies with softened (should not be runny) ice cream
4.) Layer Cool Whip
5.) Cover and seal with saran wrap and aluminum foil. Freeze overnight.
6.) Lift the cake out by the parchment paper, slice across the Twinkies to expose the cream-filled centers, and enjoy!
It's not the prettiest looking cake, but it was delicious! I'm sure I can make it look better next time. If you try this, please share your photos with me (@nowandjenn on Twitter & Instagram)
