Trigger warning for those of you who are food purists; you may be sickened by what you read here.
I realized a couple days ago that I hadn’t had a Twinkie in years and years. Why have I neglected these beautiful little bundles of goodness? Hostess stopped making them a few years ago, but someone else heroically took up the mantle to make sure that we wouldn’t have to live in a Twinkie-less world (they’re still sold by Hostess Brand, however). Capitalism at its best, people.
Today was the day that Twinkies re-entered my orbit. What can I say? How can I describe the happiness that ensued?
Twinkie, Twinkie, little star,
What a wondrous thing you are.
Spongy goodness filled with cream,
Tasty foodiness like a dream.
Twinkie, Twinkie, little star
What a wondrous thing you are.
The only way I can go forward from here, as I see it, is to learn how to make them myself. Who’d like to volunteer to be my guinea pig?
Happy sigh…
I’ll probably fill this spongy blog with cream and eat it in the morning.

Thank you for inserting the photo. I had in my mind the Hostess cupcakes. I don’t know anything about the Twinkies (except I love the creamy inside).
If you are interested in making Ho Ho’s (I don’t know if they are a Hostess item or not), I have a recipe for what they were probably designed from: Chocolate Roulade. I have the recipe “Jacques’ Chocolate Roulade” from the cookbook of Julia Child and Jacques Pepin: Cooking at Home. I have made it before, and it is fabulous. If you are interested, we could make it together sometime.
