These look like Twinkies®, but taste way better than the real deal...and they're better cold/frozen!

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 10x15 inch jelly roll pans.
- Beat the eggs until combined; stir in the melted butter. Add the water, pudding mix, and yellow cake mix, stirring well to combine. The batter will be very thick. Divide the batter between the prepared pans, spreading it evenly.
- Bake until the cakes spring back when pressed lightly with a finger or a tester comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely on wire racks.
- To make the filling, combine the room-temperature butter, cream cheese, and confectioners' sugar. Beat until smooth. Stir in the whipped topping and vanilla extract.
- When the cakes are cool, spread the filling mixture on top of one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top of the first, and cut into bars. Wrap each bar in plastic wrap and store in the freezer.

TWINKIE CAKE
If you like Twinkies, you will sure love this cake. This is an easy cake because there is no baking. With the maraschino cherries on top of the cake, it is a pretty cake for the Christmas holidays.

CHOCOLATE TWINKIE CAKE
Age is NOT a factor in who loves this cake--I've had adults and children go gah-gah over this little kitchen creation! Cutting the cake horizontally is the hardest part of the whole deal; don't be a perfectionist because no one is going to take measurements on how evenly you sliced it! :-) Leave out the cocoa...and this is a very close cousin to the Twinkie Cakes you found in your lunch box when you were a child!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350; grease a 13x9 pan.
- In a mixing bowl, combine sugar, shortening, vanilla and eggs; beating until very smooth.
- In a separate bowl, combine remaining DRY ingredients; set aside.
- Pour milk into a measuring cup.
- In three or four portions, alternate adding flour mixture and milk to the sugar mixture in the mixing bowl, beating well after each addition; scrape sides of bowl, and beat for one more minute (or so).
- Pour into prepared pan, smooth out the top, smack pan firmly against countertop (removes bubbles), two or three times.
- Pop it into the oven; bake for 25-30 minutes (springy top or clean toothpick); cool 5-8 minutes on rack.
- While cake is cooling, prepare filling: Cream butter & shortening, then add sugars, then milk, vanilla and lemon extract; beat until very fluffy & creamy; set aside.
- When cake is cooled, use bread-cutting (serrated) knife and slice in half, depth-wise.
- Remove top half of cake (slide hands between two layers and lift up--voila!); liberally spread filling over the bottom section, keeping edges clean.
- Place top half of cake on filling, press gently.
- Cover and allow to sit for a day to develop flavors (and to test your willpower!); altho' we've had good results eating right away!
- This recipe is easily halved and made in an 8- or 9-inch pan, too (and much easier to do the filling!).
- Cut into rectangles to sort-of resemble the traditional twinkie-cake shape.
