Instructions
Preheat the oven at 350°F.
Grease pan with baking spray.
Separate the yolks from the eggs by putting them in two different bowls.
Finely grind sugar, baking powder, and salt in a processor.
Take the mix in a medium-sized bowl and beat in the egg yolks with the help of a stand mixer with paddle attachment.
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.
