Pumpkin Spice Twinkies
Pumpkin Spice Twinkies are the perfect homemade dessert for Fall. With spiced cake mix, fresh pumpkin puree, and a marshmallow creme filling, you simply cannot go wrong!
Ingredients
For The Pumpkin Spice Twinkies
- 1 box Spice Cake Mix
- 1 can Pumpkin Puree 15-16 oz.
For The Marshmallow Filling
- 2 cups Marshmallow Cream
- ½ cup Shortening
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- ⅓ cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Start by preheat your oven to 350F.
- Grease your twinkie pan and set aside.
- Prepare the spice cake mix (just mix the box of cake mix and can of pumpkin puree) and portion out batter into the twinkie pan, filling each about 2/3 of the way full.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cool completely.
- Meanwhile, prepare the filling by beating together all marshmallow filling ingredients including the marshmallow cream, shortening, salt, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. If it’s too stiff, add a teaspoon or two of hot water.
- Scoop the filling into a piping bag and snip a tiny amount off the end.
- Using a chopstick, make three holes in the bottom of each twinkie. Try to move the end of the chopstick around a bit to make a bigger cavity for the filling.
- Pipe the marshmallow filling into each of the three holes of each twinkie.
- Serve and enjoy!
