STRAWBERRY TWINKIE CAKE
Strawberry Twinkie Cake is a make-ahead potluck dessert perfect for Spring and Summer using Twinkies and fresh strawberries. It's made in a 9-inch springform pan so you can slice it like a cake.

Steps:
- Line a 9-inch springform pan with plastic wrap.
- Place 2 heaping cup strawberries and sugar in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat for about 15 minutes or until thickened. Smash strawberries with a fork as they cook. Let cool.
- Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and almond extract until smooth. Fold in 1 cup of Cool Whip and set aside.
- Arrange 4 twinkies in prepared pan in the shape of an "X". See pictures above for reference. Cut 2 twinkies in half and fit them in the open spaces.
- Fill cracks with half the remaining sliced strawberries.
- Spread half of the cream cheese mixture on top of twinkies, being sure to fill all the open spaces with it.
- Spread cooled strawberry/sugar mixture on top.
- Repeat with another layer of Twinkies, filling the cracks with remaining sliced strawberries and then spreading remaining cream cheese mixture on top.
- Cover with plastic wrap, gently pressing down to compact everything slightly.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Remove cake from springform pan and use scissors to cut plastic wrap away.
- Spread Cool Whip on top and sides. You probably won't need to use all of it.
