How to Make Twonkie Filling Twinkie Filling Copycat
- In a small bowl, dissolve 1/4 teaspoon of salt in 1/4 cup of hot water. Set aside to cool completely.
- In a large bowl, beat together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter and 1 3/4 cups of granulated sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups of confectioners' sugar and 1/2 cup of cornstarch.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Slowly add the cooled salt solution and beat on low speed until fully incorporated.
- Ideas for use: Inject this filling into homemade cupcakes or layer cakes (see suggestions below).
- **Cake Suggestion:** Prepare a yellow cake mix according to package directions, substituting pineapple juice for the required water.
- **Injection Method:** Carefully slice cupcakes or layer cakes horizontally, inject the filling, and reassemble. Alternatively, use a piping bag with a large tip for precise filling.
