True Story: I was at the day old bread store to get some buns for a cookout for Memorial Day AND while I was there I spotted Twinkies among other sweet no-no's.  So I think to myself....there will be lots of people at my house and I do plan to make pies (Lemon Pies - yum) and have watermelon and cookies and strawberries, but what if they want a quick sweet something????  So I picked up the Twinkies, some cheese crackers, a mini pecan pie, and the buns.  As it turns out, no one ate the Twinkies.  Well, some of them were gone, but more than half of them remained in the goodie jar.  So I decided I must make those Twinkies into a healthy snack!  (giggle)  So......

Let me know if you decide to bake this and if your ...
