Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 350°F.

- Finely grind sugar, baking powder, and salt in a processor.

- Once frothy and thick add sugar mixture, vanilla and keep beating till the eggs are pale in colour.
- Beat in the flour on slow speed and keep aside.
- Whip the egg whites into soft peaks with the help of a electric hand mixer with a whisk attachment.
- Stir a quarter of the whipped egg whites in the batter till it loosens up.
- Incorporate the remaining whites as well retaining the fluffiness.
- Pour the batter in the baking pans and bake till you get a golden brown colour.
- Let the cakes cool on the pan for 10 minutes and then cool completely on greased wire racks.
- Make the filling while the cakes cool by stirring sugar, corn syrup, and water together in a pan on a medium flame.
- Once the sugar is dissolved bring the temperature of the liquid to boil and continue heating till it reaches 240°F.
- Whip the egg whites till they form a peak and drizzle the sugar mixture on them while the mixer is on low speed.
- Now increase the whisking speed to medium and whip for another five minutes till you see stiff and shiny peaks.
- Cut the cakes into twinkies and make tiny holes at the bottom using a pairing knife.
- Fill the holes with the filling and serve.
