Line 13 x 9 pan with Twinkies. Mix sugar and pineapple together in a pan and bring to a boil.  Pour over twinkies. Cool slightly. Spread pudding over pineapple mixture.  Slice bananas and place over pudding.  Top with whipped topping.  Optional: top with cherries and chopped pecans.  Refrigerate for a few hours before serving.

Note From Paula’s Test Kitchen: Of course, we always substitute real whipped cream for whipped topping. This is a great recipe to make with your kids. If your kids are like the “BIG Kids” in the Test Kitchen, make sure they don’t sneak all the Twinkies before making the pie!

I’ve made this before, but included a layer of frozen strawberries (thawed and drained) before spreading the pudding on.  MMMMMMM!!!  Also, for it to really be good, you have to eat the leftover twinkies! (tee, hee)
