Number Of Ingredients 15

TWINKIES:
6 Twinkies
Popsicle sticks
4 cups vegetable oil
Flour for dusting
BATTER:
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 Tablespoon oil
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
BERRY SAUCE:
1 jar (10-ounce) seedless raspberry preserves
1 cup fresh or frozen mixed berries

Steps:

  • TWINKIES: Chill or freeze Twinkies for several hours or overnight. Heat 4 cups vegetable oil in deep fryer to about 375°F. BATTER: Mix together milk, vinegar and oil. In another bowl, blend flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk wet ingredients into dry and continue mixing until smooth. Refrigerate while oil heats. Push stick into Twinkie lengthwise, leaving about 2 inches to use as a handle, dust with flour and dip into the batter. Rotate Twinkie until batter covers entire cake. Place carefully in hot oil. The Twinkie will float, so hold it under with a utensil to ensure even browning. It should turn golden in 3 to 4 minutes. Depending on the size of your deep fryer, you might be able to fry only one at a time, two at the most. Remove Twinkie to paper towel and let drain. Remove stick and allow Twinkie to sit for about 5 minutes before serving. Variation: Slice Twinkie into 4 pieces. Flour and batter each before frying. With this treatment, one Twinkie will serve two people if accompanied by a sauce. SAUCE: In a saucepan, heat preserves over low heat until melted. Add 1 cup of fresh or frozen mixed berries. Heat until sauce just simmers. Cover; refrigerate until served. Makes 1 1/2 cups.

Tips:

  • Use a deep fryer or a large pot filled with oil to fry the Twinkies. Make sure the oil is at least 3 inches deep.
  • Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit before frying the Twinkies. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly and don't burn.
  • Use a slotted spoon to carefully lower the Twinkies into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pot, or the Twinkies will not cook evenly.
  • Fry the Twinkies for 1-2 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and drain them on paper towels.
  • Serve the Twinkies immediately, dusted with powdered sugar, chocolate sauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.
  • If you don't have a deep fryer or a large pot, you can also fry the Twinkies in a shallow pan filled with oil. Just be sure to use a heat-resistant pan and to carefully monitor the Twinkies so that they don't burn.
