Method 3 steps
Scoop out cream filling from inside of Twinkies and place halves in a 9x9-inch high-sided square baking pan in a flat layer and top with espresso. Discard cream.
Combine egg yolks, cheese, and sugar. Drain excess espresso from Twinkies. Pour cheese mixture over Twinkies and smooth with an offset spatula.
Place as much cocoa powder as you think you'll need into a sifter or container with a shaker lid and liberally dust on top of cheese. Serve.
