Twinkie Cake

This recipe comes by way of my fabulous sister in-law! Thanks so much Kilika! It sounds soooooo delicious!


Ingredients:
CAKE
Cake Mix - any flavor. I used chocolate
Eggs
Oil
Milk
Follow directions on box except add an extra egg and use milk instead of water.
Bake according to box and allow to completely cool. Either bake layers separately or cut layers after cake has cooled.

INNER ICING
1 cup Crisco shortening
2 cups granulated sugar
1/4 cup (1 stick) butter, softened, not melted
Mix shortening into sugar until well blended. Add butter until smooth.
Be careful not to overmix, as it will melt the oils and will be hard to recover.

FROSTING
One container of any ready-made frosting
2 cups of sugar
Mix until smooth

Frosting tips:
Dipping a butter knife into cool water before spreading will help frosting to smooth out over the cake.
Start from the middle and smooth frosting onto the top surface and sides.
Leave cake in refrigerator for a few hours before serving to let the icing set up.
