One of my favorite fruits has to be strawberries. I grew up during my high school years in Troy, Ohio and always looked forward to the strawberry festival each year. Then I found myself moved for the second part of my life to Tampa, Florida and can you believe it? We have a strawberry festival here, over in Plant City each year. I truly can eat more strawberries than imaginable.
One night last week when I was going through my Great Aunt Bernice’s (Aunt Bee) recipe’s I found a simple cake mix cookie using a chocolate cake and chocolate chips. So tonight as I was finishing cleaning the kitchen after dinner I heard a yell from the other room for something to snack on. It never fails. I truly believe that the sound of the dishwasher starts this house to craving more. Well I remembered Aunt Bee’s recipe and checked the cabinet to see if I had a cake mix. Not very often you’ll find one in my kitchen. As y’all know, I prefer to make my own cakes from scratch. Nope, none. Believe it or not, now I wanted to make these cookies too. I know, it’s after 8pm and my kitchen is clean, but Publix is only 3 blocks away. Well 10 minutes later and a couple bucks shelled out I had a cake mix.
I stood there looking at all those cake mixes and then I saw it. Strawberry. Yupp!!! Strawberry it’s gonna be. Well I couldn’t use chocolate chips in these. Well I could, but I thought white chocolate sounded better. So born tonight are my Strawberries and Cream Cookies. Not really my recipe. Just a bit of a conversion on my wonderful aunt’s. I think she’d love them.
So let me know what y’all think.
