Take note
Be cautious while working with hot oil to avoid any accidents. Also, exercise self-control or you might end up eating all the donuts before they're even done!

1

Prepare the Twinkies

Take out your Twinkies and unwrap them. Place them on a cutting board and using a sharp knife, carefully slice each Twinkie horizontally in half. This will give you two donut-like halves.

2

Heat the oil

In a deep pot or a frying pan, pour vegetable oil until it's about 2 inches deep. Place the pot on the stove over medium heat and let the oil heat up. You'll know it's ready when a small piece of bread dropped into the oil sizzles and turns golden brown.

3

Fry the Twinkie donuts

Gently place the Twinkie halves, one at a time, into the hot oil. Let them fry for about 1-2 minutes on each side until they turn golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon or tongs to carefully flip them over. Avoid overcrowding the pot, fry them in batches if needed.

4

Drain and coat

Once the donuts are beautifully fried, use the slotted spoon or tongs to remove them from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate. Allow them to cool slightly to avoid burning your tongue! While they're still warm, sprinkle generous amounts of sugar over the donuts to coat them fully.

5

Enjoy your Twinkie Donuts

Grab a donut, take a bite, and let the joy melt in your mouth. These twinkling treats are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store them in an airtight container for up to a day. Now, sit back, relax, and savor every heavenly bite!
