Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Twinkies
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 cups Strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup Blueberries
- 1 can Whipped cream
- 8 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Slice each Twinkie in half lengthwise and arrange them, cut side up, in a single layer across the bottom of a 9x13-inch dish to create the crust.
In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract to stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, creating a light and airy filling.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the Twinkie base, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Layer the sliced strawberries over one half of the pie and the blueberries over the other half to emulate a patriotic red and blue color scheme.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld.
Just before serving, top with dollops of whipped cream and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
Slice into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy your Patriotic Twinkie Pie!
