Hostess Brands might be out of business but you don't have to give up on your obsession with their sugary sweets as long as you have the Twinkie bundt cake recipe in your possession.
This snack cake is exactly what you expect it to be, just five times bigger. A golden vanilla fluffy pastry is filled with marshmallow creamy sweetness and made into a circular donut. When you cut a slice from the Twinkie bundt cake, you will be astonished at how closely it resembles the original snack cake. That's not all, the taste is almost exactly matched.
Sweetapolita blogger Rosie Alyea adapted this recipe from the bakery book known as 'Pure Vanilla: Irresistible Recipes and Essential Techniques.' She kindly made it available for all those who might be experienced Hostess withdrawal.
