How to Make Twinkie Eclair
- Cut 12 Twinkies in half lengthwise using a serrated knife.
- Arrange 6 Twinkie halves, cut-side up, in an 8x8 inch baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, prepare pudding mix according to package directions using 2 cups of milk.
- Gently fold in 8 ounces of whipped topping and 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, or your favorite).
- Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the Twinkie layer.
- Arrange the remaining 6 Twinkie halves, cut-side down, on top of the pudding.
- Remove the lid and foil seal from a 16-ounce container of prepared frosting (vanilla or chocolate). Microwave for 1 minute on high, then stir well.
- Drizzle the melted frosting evenly over the top layer of Twinkies.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the pudding is set and the frosting is firm. For best results, refrigerate for 2 hours.
