Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 ounces) yellow cake mix
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- ½ jar (approximately 3½ ounces) marshmallow fluff
- 1 cup whipped topping, like cool whip
- nonstick cooking spray
- confectioners' sugar, optional for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare a large bundt pan with butter and flour or by spraying with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, water, and oil. Mix until well blended (a few lumps are okay).
- Pour batter into prepared bundt pan. Bake for 25-35 minutes, making sure to not overcook. As soon as an inserted toothpick comes out clean, remove it from the oven and let cool completely in the pan.
- Once the cake has cooled completely (still in the pan), use a handle of a wooden spoon to make holes. Get almost all the way to the bottom (which will be the top of the cake once inverted). Every ½ inch, poke another hole, continuing around the entire cake. Make sure the holes are wide enough to hold the marshmallow and whipped topping filling.
- In a small bowl, mix together the marshmallow fluff and whipped topping.
- Place the filling in a piping bag fitted with a tip. (You could also use a zipped plastic bag with a corner tip cut off.) Pipe the filling into each hole of the cake. Be sure to get the filling as far down each hole as possible.
- Carefully invert the cake onto a large plate or serving platter. Top with confectioners' sugar before cutting and serving.

Thank you for all the homemade recipes. So much better than store bought!
Love meals, desserts. All great tasting
Gotta say it, I’m a little disappointed to see a boxed mix and coolwhip on your site.
Sorry you are dissappointed. I create recipes for everyone, not just from scratch bakers. Feel free to look around more, as there are hundreds of from-scratch recipes. As well as dozens of semi-homemade recipes! 🙂
This looks so easy and who does not like a twinkie?? Will try soon!! I appreciate all of your yummy recipes!!
Excellent, nothing wrong with grabbing a cake mix now and then after all its the same ingredients we would be putting in a scratch one. Its not too overly sweet and just right. Love it.
Haven’t had time to try any of these recipes but they usually make my mouth water just reading the recipes!!
Does this have to refrigerated since it has whipped topping?
Hi, Angie! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. Yes, store the cake, covered in plastic wrap, in the refrigerator for 4-5 days. Have a great day!
The twinky cake oh so yummy ty so easy Birthday party hit awesome
I’m interested in making this Twinkie Copycat Cake, but I need to make your homemade Yellow Cake. Should I use the ingredients on this Copycat Cake, OR, the Yellow Cake ?? They are different, and I don’t want to mess it up. I believe my family will love both of these. I know I will. Thanks !!!
Big big hit especially with kiddos and adults! Tastes like a Twinkie!! Delicious. Thank you.
