Step-by-Step Instructions:
1️⃣ Preheat & Prep the Pan:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a Twinkie mold or mini loaf pan. If using a silicone mold, no need to flour.
2️⃣ Mix the Pound Cake Batter:
In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy (about 2–3 minutes). Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Stir in vanilla.
Alternate adding the dry mixture and milk into the creamed mixture, mixing just until combined.
3️⃣ Fill the Molds & Bake:
Spoon batter into the molds, filling each about ¾ full.
Bake for 18–22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely before filling.
4️⃣ Make the Peach Filling:
In a small saucepan, combine diced peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until thickened and jammy (about 6–8 minutes). Let cool completely.
5️⃣ Fill the Cakes:
Use a skewer or paring knife to create a cavity in the bottom or side of each Twinkie. Pipe or spoon the cooled peach filling inside.
6️⃣ Glaze to Finish:
Whisk together powdered sugar, cream (or milk), and vanilla until smooth and pourable. Drizzle over the top of each filled cake.
7️⃣ Set & Serve:
Let the glaze firm up for 10–15 minutes. Serve and enjoy handheld peach cobbler bliss!
