Recipe Exchange: Sweets!

Welcome to Recipe Exchange, posted on Fridays around lunchtime with a theme. Share recipes around that theme, or if you’ve just made something amazing, feel free to veer off topic. (Note: my WordPress account was created long before I became The Duchess Approves.)

To help your fellow Avocados in recreating your masterpieces, try to write your recipes as clearly as possible, including ingredients, measurements and instructions. If you’re copying and pasting from another site, please include the link to the source. (If you don’t want to bother with copying and pasting, linking directly to the recipe is good, too.)

Today’s theme: Sweets! Be it a fancy formal dessert, a favorite snack, or tasty drink – what satisfies your sweet tooth?

I’m not much of a baker, so when I do bake, I go for simple recipes. One of my favorites are strawberry cake mix cookies – surprisingly easy and delicious. This one is based off of a recipe I found here: https://kirbiecravings.com/strawberry-chocolate-chip-cookies, but I’ve modified it slightly to my own tastes.

The best part about this is the flexibility – pick any cake mix flavor and any chip combination that sounds good to you.
