YouTuber Elise Strachan of 'My Cupcake Addiction' added an iconic cartoon confection to her roster of cupcakes and cake creations. The Minion Twinkies are Strachan's latest innovation and they are as sweet as they are sinister.
Uploaded to her popular YouTube channel, this recipe turns Twinkies into edible versions of the 'Despicable Me' Minions. Using yellow chocolate, blue icing and other sugar-filled ingredients, Elise Strachan was able to recreate the adorable characters. As explained in her video, this recipe is a no-bake dessert and only requires heating for the melting of the chocolate. Once that stage is complete, the rest is dipping, drying and drawing with icing.
These lovable characters are easy to make and easier to consume. To make your own Minion Twinkies, follow Elise Strachan's detailed video tutorial.
