HEAVENLY TWINKIE DESSERT

Heavenly Twinkie Dessert image

The other day at the salvage store, I picked up a box of Twinkies, Ho Hos, and Chocolate Cupcakes STILL IN DATE! Oh, the shameful sins of a diabetic who cheats. Shame on MEEE....but they're not all for me. I use 'em do to make desserts, share with Pop when he comes over, and the neighbor's kids that pop in. I checked out the Hostess website and came across this recipe and thought that nothing like this had ever been posted here, nor thought up by my little mind. It's different, using pistachio pudding (one of my favories) and raspberries. I'm thinking this might go to one of our eatin' meetin's if it's really that good.
