How to Make Twinkie Tiramisu
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant espresso powder and hot water until dissolved. Let cool slightly.
- Cut each Twinkie in half horizontally.
- Dip each Twinkie half briefly into the espresso mixture, ensuring they are lightly moistened but not soggy.
- Spread a thin layer of the mascarpone cream in the bottom of a trifle bowl or individual serving dishes.
- Arrange a layer of the espresso-dipped Twinkies on top of the cream.
- Repeat the layers of cream and Twinkies, ending with a layer of cream.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
- Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and garnish with chocolate shavings or fresh berries (optional).
