What better way to celebrate the birth of our fine nation than by making one of my favorite recipes, "Patriotic Twinkie Pie". I've been very vocal about the many varied uses for Twinkies in everything from aerospace to home construction, but why venture too far from food when you don't have to. Thanks to Randy Hollenbeck for the recipe. I think it goes without saying, but enjoy...
Items Needed:
- 6-7 Hostess® Twinkies®, broken or torn into 1" pieces
- 1 pint fresh blueberries
- 1 lb. fresh strawberries, sliced
- 2 packages (5.1 oz.) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 6 cups milk
- 1 container (12 oz.) frozen nondairy whipped topping, thawed
Directions:
Place half the Twinkie pieces in a 6-quart glass trifle bowl or trifle dish. In a separate bowl, combine the pudding mix and milk and stir according to the package instructions. Spoon half of the pudding over the Twinkies. Spread the blueberries over the pudding. Top with the remaining Twinkie pieces. Spoon the remaining pudding over the Twinkies spreading evenly. Spread the sliced strawberries over the pudding. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight, until completely chilled and set. Top with the whipped topping just before serving.
Makes 16 servings.
Note: Frozen blueberries and strawberries may be used instead of fresh.
