- Line a 9x13x13 pan (or similar size) with Twinkies.
- Distribute for even coverage.
- Drizzle Twinkies with Kahlua and let them soak.
- Combine ricotta and mascarpone with a large spoon until smooth.
- Slowly begin to add powdered sugar (reserve 1/8th package of sugar for garnish) and whisk until mixture is smooth but heavy.
- Add dark rum and continue to whisk until fully combined and mixture is fuller and lighter.
- Taste mixture for desired sweetness (do not add more rum or tiramisu will not set properly).
- Pour cheese mixture evenly over twinkies in pan, use a soft spatula to smooth mixture and distribute in between twinkies and into corners.
- Cover and place pan in refrigerator for four hours to set.
- To finish, sprinkle cocoa powder liberally over top of tiramisu.
- Then grate chocolate bar and sprinkle shavings over the top as well.
- To serve, cut into pieces and dust with powdered sugar.
- Enjoy!
- For something different, try Frozen Twinkie Tiramisu by freezing overnight (just remember to cut pieces out with a hot, butter knife), it's decadent!
- Cooking time is refrigeration time.
