Instructions:
In a medium mixing bowl, prepare the instant vanilla pudding according to the package instructions, using the cold milk. Refrigerate the prepared pudding for about 5-10 minutes to set.
In another mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream using an electric mixer until it starts to thicken.
Fold half of the whipped cream into the chilled vanilla pudding until well combined. Reserve the remaining whipped cream for later use.
Line the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish with a layer of Twinkies.
Top the Twinkie layer with half of the sliced strawberries, spreading them out evenly.
Spread half of the pudding and whipped cream mixture over the strawberries, creating a smooth layer.
Repeat the layers by adding another layer of Twinkies, followed by the remaining sliced strawberries, and the remaining pudding and whipped cream mixture.
Finish by spreading the reserved whipped cream over the top layer, ensuring an even and smooth surface.
For an elegant touch, garnish the dessert with a few additional fresh strawberries.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 3 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld together and the Twinkies to soften slightly.
When ready to serve, slice into portions and enjoy the delightful medley of flavors and textures.
