Twinkie Filling

I'm still working on perfecting my twinkie cake recipe. However, the filling has been through many trials and is awesome! It's delicious in any kind of cupcake!

1/4 cup Powdered Sugar
1/4 cup Flour
1 cup Milk
3/4 cup Crisco Shortening (Use regular Crisco only! NOT buttered flavor.)
1/4 cup Butter
1 tsp Vanilla
3/4 cup Sugar
1. In a small sauce pan, combine the flour, powdered sugar, and milk over medium-high heat. Stir constantly until it thickens. About 2-5 minutes. Set aside and let it cool.

2. Cream Crisco, butter, vanilla and sugar in a stand mixer until well combined. (You can use a hand held mixer but just a warning, the motor may not be able to handle the next step!)

3. Add cooled sugar, flour, milk mixture to creamed sugar, butter, vanilla and Crisco. Mix for at least 5 minutes. It will be completely combined, light, and fluffy.


4. Spoon mixture into a pastry bag with a tip. I just put a tip in the corner of a Zip-lock bag. It works great, and you can just throw the bag away when you're done!

5. Fill cupcakes with filling.

6. Enjoy!
