  1. Sounds Yummy! I recently tried a similar recipe using lemon cake mix. I added dried blueberries and they were delicious--and SO easy! I plan to try spice cake too with dried cherries and walnuts.

  4. Snickerdoodles always make me think of my grandfather. They were his favorite cookie, so I would always make him a batch when I'd go visit. :-)
