Do you like Twinkies? Of course you do. Who doesn't? What about pie? What if...right?...what if you put the two together? Why, you'd have
Scutter01's Hillbilly Twinkie Pie
1 Box of Twinkies
2 Boxes of instant vanilla pudding (3.5 oz size)
3 1/2 Cups milk
1 Can crushed pineapple, drained
2-3 Bananas, sliced
Cool Whip (don't cheap out and get canned whipped cream. C'mon, now.)
Maraschino cherries
Sprinkles
Put the pudding mix in a large bowl along with the milk and whisk for two minutes. Refrigerate until it sets up (about 30 minutes). We're looking for the pie-filling directions on the box, not the pudding directions, so it'll be a little less firm than pudding.
Start draining the pineapple so that it'll be thoroughly drained by the time the pudding is set.
Unwrap the Twinkies and slice them in half lengthwise on the vertical (so you have a left and right, not a top and bottom). Arrange the halves, filling-side up, in a 9x13 pan. The pan should comfortably fit nine of the ten Twinkies. You can either slice the tenth down a bit to fill in the gaps or you can just eat it when no one is looking. I promise not to tell.
Once the pudding is set, spread it over the Twinkies with a spatula. Top with the drained pineapple and then the sliced bananas. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours to finish setting the pudding. Serve cold topped with Cool Whip, cherries, and sprinkles. Can also add toasted coconut or powdered toasted coconut topping. Garnishing the plate with two or three 'Nilla Wafers also goes over well.
I will most assuredly have pictures this time. I just finished making this, though, so it's not ready to serve yet. I'll take pics later.
you forgot the bacon in that recipe. ( maybe you meant bacon sprinkles a.k.a. bacos )
sounds good
twinkies plus pie=awesomeness
