There’s no denying that Minions have taken the world by storm. These guys are just too loveable. Today I’m going to be showing you how to make Minion Twinkies because who doesn’t want to have minions at their party?
This recipe requires a steady hand, as there are a lot of fine details, but have fun and go crazy with some of their iconic facial expressions!
Instructions:
- Completely coat a Twinkie in yellow candy melts. Let any excess drip off the Twinkie, and transfer it to a piece of parchment paper to set.
- Place your black candy melts in a snap seal bag. Use a pair of scissors to cut off a fine corner tip. Pipe about 10 or so 1 cm lines on another piece of parchment paper.
- Pipe pupils onto the center of the white Smarties candies.
- Use a pair of scissors and cut a thicker tip now from the same corner of the snap seal bag of black candy melts. Then, pipe two shoes forming at a V angle. This will look somewhat like a heart.
- Use a knife to trim away any rough or rigid edges from the yellow Twinkies.
- Take a couple of spoonfuls of blue candy melts and place them in a snap seal bag. Cut off a fine corner tip. Then, transfer the black candy melts into another snap seal bag and cut off a fine corner tip.
- Pipe your minion’s goggles onto the top quarter of your Twinkie. Place 1 or 2 eyes directly onto the line of chocolate. Then, draw a small facial expression under the goggles. Repeat on all Twinkies.
- Pipe a blue square towards the bottom of the twinkie, with two curved lines coming out of the top two corners of the square. This is going to be the top of his overalls.
- Dip your minion directly into the blue candy melts so that it lines up with the bottom of the square you piped earlier. Then, take the minion out of the bowl and place him directly on to a pair of shoes. Secure in place for 30 seconds to a minute.
- Once secure, on the back of the twinkie, finish piping the goggles and overalls line from the front so that it’s even and complete.
- Run your knife under the 10 cm lines. Dip them in the yellow candy melts and place about 3 on top of each head.
- Under the overall straps, pipe a yellow candy melt arm with a little black glove.
