Peach Cobbler Pound Cake Twinkies are a delicious fusion of two classic desserts – peach cobbler and pound cake – all wrapped in a Twinkie-inspired sponge cake. These indulgent treats are filled with a sweet peach mixture and a creamy vanilla filling, offering a unique twist on both desserts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box yellow cake mix (for the pound cake, or use homemade pound cake batter)
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 can (15 oz) sliced peaches, drained and chopped
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for filling)
  • 1/4 cup milk (for filling)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thicker filling)
  • Whipped cream for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Twinkie pan or use mini loaf pans.
  2. Prepare the cake mix according to the package directions (or use your favorite homemade pound cake recipe). Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling each mold about halfway.
  3. Bake according to package directions or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 20-25 minutes. Let the cakes cool completely.
  4. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the peach cobbler filling. In a small saucepan, combine the chopped peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the peaches soften and the mixture becomes syrupy. Set aside to cool.
  5. For the filling, whisk together the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl until smooth. If you’d like a thicker filling, dissolve the cornstarch in the 1/4 cup of milk and heat it until thickened before adding it to the cream mixture. Let cool slightly.
  6. Once the cakes have cooled, carefully slice them lengthwise (like a Twinkie). Hollow out a small portion of the center of each cake to make room for the filling.
  7. Fill the hollowed cakes with the peach cobbler filling and top with a generous amount of the creamy vanilla filling.
  8. Place the top half of the cake back on and gently press to seal. Garnish with whipped cream if desired.
  9. Serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy your Peach Cobbler Pound Cake Twinkies!

Notes

  • For a quicker version, you can use store-bought pound cake or sponge cake instead of making your own.
  • If you want a stronger peach flavor, you can add a splash of peach juice or peach liqueur to the peach mixture.
  • These treats can be refrigerated for up to 2 days, but they’re best enjoyed fresh.
