Twinkie Cakesuzi Q Cake Recipes

SUZY Q CAKE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, beat together cake mix, water, vegetable oil and eggs until smooth.
• Pour into a greased and floured 13" x 9" pan and bake according to the package directions.
• When cake is cooled, remove from pan to flat surface and cut cake in half horizontally.
• To prepare filling, cook flour and milk in a saucepan over low heat until thickened; whisking often. Cool mixture COMPLETELY in refrigerator.
• While heated mixture cools, beat together sugar, Crisco, salt and vanilla. Add to cooled flour/milk mixture and beat until smooth and creamy.
• Spread filling on 1 half of cake. Place other half of cake on top and sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.

THE ULTIMATE TWINKIE CAKE!

Steps:

• I listed the ingredients from a Duncan Hines cake mix, so you will need to follow the directions on which ever cake mix you use.
• Mix well,then pour batter into wax paper lined 9x13 pan. Then bake, let cool and remove from pan.
• Slice lengthwise with thread or knife. Spread filling between layers and sprinkle top with powdered sugar.
• Filling directions: Combine flour and water, cook until thick, cool in refrigerator, combine sugar,margarine,shortening and vanilla. Beat until thick and fluffy. Add cooled mixture; Beat again until fluffy and spread filling between layers. If it looks curdled, you need to beat it a little longer.
• Like I told you, you can make them into little loaf pans or mini muffin pans. Use a pastry bag to pipe the filling into the cakes.
• You could be creative and add cocoa or strawberry jelly to the filling.
• I try and sprinkle the powdered sugar on them just before I serve them as the sugar absorbs into the cake over a short period of time. You can refrigerate them (thats the way I like them, or frozen) but they are fine left out on the counter for a day or so.
• I am just guessing on the servings, it all depends on the pans you use. I think I get between 25-35 mini muffins out of 1 cake mix,1 dozen mini loafs and I am just approximating on the 20 slices in a 9x13. Also, to be honest, I am not sure the amount of time it takes to make them. The baking time is also a guess depending on which size pans you use. I make the filling while the cakes are cooking.

TWINKIE CAKE/SUZI Q CAKE

Steps:

• For the twinkie cake use one box of yellow cake mix. Mix the cake batter as directed on cake box directions in a jelly roll pan. For the suzi Q cake, use one box chocolate cake mix, following directions on the cake box and bake on a jelly roll pan according to the box directions. When the cake is done, let cool, then slice the cake in half, making two sheet cakes. While your cake is baking in the oven, cook the flour and milk til thick, using a wire wisk to stir til thick. Cool in the pan. In a mixing bowl combine the white sugar,softened butter, crisco and vanilla. Beat for 5 min. then add to the flour and milk mixture. Beat ten min. until fluffy. Frost the top of one of the cut cakes generously. Place the other cake half on top of the just frosted cake half. Use the rest of the fluffy frosting to frost the top of the second cake, letting it drip down the sides. Cut into 12 lg. pieces. (I've always doubled the frosting. So not good for you, but it's so yummy, I like it thick on my cake!!)
