Ingredients

  • 10 Twinkies halved lengthwise
  • 15 oz can of mandarin oranges - optional*
  • 1 3- oz package orange Jell-O
  • ½ cup boiling water
  • 1 3.4 oz package instant vanilla pudding or French
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • ½ cup French vanilla liquid coffee creamer
  • 1 12 oz container non-dairy whipped topping, such as Cool Whip (big tub)

Instructions

  • Arrange the Twinkies cut side up in a 13x9 inch baking dish.
  • If using, lay some drained mandarin oranges over Twinkies.
  • In a bowl, stir together the Jell-O and boiling water. When Jell-O is dissolved, put the mixture in the refrigerator to cool for 10 minutes. To hasten the process, drop in an ice cube - the extra liquid won't hurt anything.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the pudding mix, milk and coffee creamer for 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Add the orange Jell-O/water mixture to the pudding mixture and stir until smooth.
  • Fold in two-thirds of the whipped topping. Spread the orange mixture (pour it, smooth it) over the cut Twinkies. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 6-8 hours. Before serving, spread the remaining whipped topping over the top. Decorate thematically. *Try another fruit!
