1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup cold water
2 teaspoons vanilla
7 egg yolks

1 1/2 cups Butter Flavor Crisco
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup cold milk (scant)
2 teaspoons vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • To make the Cakes - In a large bowl, mix the first 4 ingredients. Make a well and add the next 4 ingredients. Beat until smooth with a spoon and set aside. Beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Pour over egg yolk batter and fold in until well beaten. Pour in an ungreased 10x14 pan. Bake 45-50 minutes. Cool in pan. Invert in pan with cups under each corner. Cool completely and run a knife around the edge. Remove and cut in half.
  • To make the Filling - Combine the first 3 ingredients and beat on high for 5 minutes, gradually adding the milk and vanilla. Beat 5 more minutes on high. Spread between 2 layers. Cut to size (3x1 inch) and wrap separately.

Tips:

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting.
  • Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to achieve a smooth and creamy batter.
  • If the batter is too thick, add a little milk or water until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Bake the cakes until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cakes to cool completely before filling them.
  • Use a piping bag or a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off to fill the cakes with cream.
  • Store the Twinkies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
