I’m crazy about these Twinkie cupcakes! I have loved Twinkies since I was a kid (they’re just so nostalgic, aren’t they?) and these taste just like them.

Fill cupcake foils about 3/4 of the way full.

Cut a slit in the middle of each cupcake.
I used a medicine syringe, filled it with the filling, and filled each cupcake center.
Serve and enjoy!
