Here's everything you need for these delightful Ghostbusters Twinkies. Don't worry, that's not real ecto-plasm in there!
Let's Get Started…
Ingredients To Gather:
- Cake ingredients:
- 1 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- Filling ingredients:
- 1 cup lemon curd
- Green food gel dye
Directions To Follow:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prep the canoe pan with non-stick spray.
- In a bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer cream the butter and sugar. Add the egg and the vanilla until combined.
- Alternate adding the flour mixture and the milk to butter/sugar/egg/vanilla and stir until combined.
Next, add the batter to the pan, filling each canoe about three-fourths full. Bake for 15 minutes, and when they're done let them cool in the pan before turning them out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Next, combine the lemon curd and the green food gel dye in a small bowl and stir until you get a bright green color. Place the filling into a pastry plunger using a spoon, and then fill the cakes from the bottom.
Finished!
We're sure the kiddos will adore these very nifty Ghostbusters twinkies, but many adults will to, especially since most of grew up watching the original franchise.
Happy Baking & Enjoy!
