That's what we called very dark chocolate cake filled with swirls of layered cream, back in New York! They're not covered in chocolate like a ho-ho, but are more cake-like in nature.
Hmm. I wonder if one can major in chocolate at university.
I know of two uses of the term. One, is a nickname given to US Marines. Two, is a sugary sweet snack. Here is a link to follow: http://www.drakesdevildogs.com/
Growing up in New Hampshire, Devil Dogs were my third favorite snack, after Ring Dings and Hostess cupcakes. Their one failure was that they were not frosted, however, this made them especially good if frozen before eating. Frosting tends to flake off after freezing.
Ah the memories!
Oh, and Swiss rolls were great too, more creamy filling and granulated sugar dusted on the outside.
I used to live in the Ohio River Valley (Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana), and I'd never heard of Devil Dogs until I moved to Boston. They're everywhere around here. But Tabaqui had the perfect solution, and that would so be Dean's attitude, IMO.

Heeee. Also, something ding-dong/ho ho like, but i've never had one. Little Debbie sells 'Devil Creams', which i fondly call Satan Creams....
This link, all about Devil Dogs, says what states they were sold in. :)

Grown-ups don;t get that hooked on a snack like that, I'm thinking.
This is Dean you're talking about. Of course he'd get hooked on a snack food. My Dean Muse is almost insulted that you didn't think he would.
