Strawberry Twinkie Dessert

Great combination with the condensed milk. The cream is so good. Easy and fun to make!

I made this for an 80s movie night event. Everyone enjoyed it. Quick and easy too!

The family loved it! Big hit! I however did not use the strawberry glaze just covered the top with fresh strawberries! Everyone liked it

Tasty! Twinkies aren’t as readily available here so I just used a sponge cake which I decided to drizzle with butterscotch liqueur (yum) and I took some of the other reviewers suggestions of putting the strawberries in before the cream mix, using a jelly instead of the glaze and serving it in a trifle bowl. Looks spectacular and tastes it too. However next time I’ll make it for a function or to take to work because it makes a lot and I can’t justify eating it all myself (though I would like to).

Best dessert at the office party! Used 10 whole Twinkies and smushed them down in the bottom is the bowl. Layered fresh strawberries on top and then poured whipped cream/milk/cream cheese mix on top. Then mixed a can of strawberry pie filling and fresh strawberries on top. OMG!!! There is NOTHING left and I am already passing out the recipe!

My family laughed the whole time we were eating this. It was so so so sweet, that seriously, about 3 Tablespoons per person would be the right amount. It would be better with a homemade sponge cake, but I feel the problem is that the cream cheese/whip cream layer was just too much: overly sweet and rich. I won’t be making this again.

Made this for valentines. Great dessert for the raving Twinkie fan, but like someone else stated, it had a bit of the “processed” taste. While that’s not a bad thing, personally, I would love to try this with a homemade sponge, pound or angel food cake… perhaps devils food cake with garnishes of chocolate curls atop the strawberries. Very versatile recipe.

I made this last night….It was very good…..I did take advice on one of the reviews. I spread the strawberry mixture across the twinkies then put cream mixture on top. My son and boyfriend couldn’t get enough of it.

I thought this was delicious, however, the reason for the 4-star rating, is because my husband thought the twinkies tasted processed, and suggested using homemade sponge cake next time. Also, when I make this again, I will switch the order of the strawberries and cream.. I’d recommend putting the strawberries over the spongecake, then top with whipped cream mixture.

I would give the frosting 5 stars alone. I only wanted to make dessert for 4 so I just used 4 twinkies. I cut them in half and put them in large wine glasses. One for each guest. Put seran wrap over the top and chilled. I also used the supreme strawberry topping which the directions didn’t make much sense to me. Next time I would just make the strawberries like I do for short cake. Everyone loved it though and said it was pretty!

I took this to a Memorial Day BBQ and it was a hit. Kids and adults alike enjoyed this delicious dessert, perfect for summer!

be sure to use cool whip brand whipped topping, (not light) the generic (or light) isn’t heavy enough to support the cream cheese and milk mixture.

This is an awesome make ahead recipe! It is also good with bananas.

I was worried I wouldn’t have enough and I was right. It was gone in 2 seconds.

Thanks for a great feast for my eyes. Now I am ready to cook! Happy Thanksgiving!

This recipe is incredible. Thank you so very much. I tweak it a little. I used more strawberries and twinkies. I always layer in a pretty glass bowl. It has been such a hit I have been asked to make for wedding receptions, birthdays, covered dish dinners, and today a benefit. They wanted to auction it off! I have also added blueberries for Memorial, Labor Days and 4th of July. Always a huge success and everyone loves it.

This was good, but pretty plain. The whole thing was just sweet, not much flavor to it. I think some lemon juice in the cream cheese layer or a different type of snack cake (zingers maybe?) would make a world of difference.

It is sweet. A little too sweet for our taste but it was great for a party we went to… quick and easy!

This was an easy simple dessert to make for my kiddos, while I didn’t care for the overly sweetened milk taste, they just ate it up. I’d make again with possibly less sweetened milk and more cream cheese, to my taste. The treat was light and fluffy and I assembled like a mini trifle bowls for individual servings verses on big huge pan that would have gotten wasted and soggy if there were any left overs. Assembling them this way made less of a mess and less of a waste. I made up the cream cheese mixture and saved it in the frig and dished it out as I needed. I’ll do this again with some tweeking.

I made my own strawberry glaze with orange extract added from a different site, I don’t remember seeing a package of it sold around here. I brought this to a picnic. Unfortunately, it wasn’t served until the half the guests were already gone. It still was a hit! Very delicious and refreshing! Will make it again!

This is delicious! I make it for our family’s July 4th get together. Just keep it in the cooler until you are ready to eat so it won’t get too warm! If you are having company and want a dessert you can make a day or so ahead of time, this is a good one for that. Just make sure you cover it good before storing in the fridge so the strawberries don’t get soggy.
