Lets Remember Twinkies by Recreating Them!

By admin Posted on November 18, 2012 Leave a comment

When I was told Hostes went down on November 16th 2012 I was sad… I’m not so much of a fatty that it tore me apart but there were a few things my kiddos wouldnt be able to experience if the sweet snacks were no longer available.

Twinkies and Ding Dongs would no longer be around… so.. we will have to recreate our favorite snacks to keep them alive!

http://www.bellasavvy.net/ had a recipe for copy-cat Twinkies which I thought I would share below!
