I have found Cherry Chip cake mix by Betty Crocker at Pass Christian Walmart; still looking for the mix made by Duncan Hines.

I used this recipe over Valentine's Day, but I used Red Velvet cake mix and omitted the nuts. Turned out AWESOME. I also melted white chocolate and drizzled on top. Extremely moist and not too sweet.

my grandma used to make these all the time and I LOVE THEM. She passed away and I miss these cookies and of course miss her MORE but she had several grandkids and we all stayed the night at her house together and she would make these for us.

AWESOME MELT IN YOUR MOUTH RECIPE - wanted something red for my Christmas Cookie boxes but not the typical stuff. I used this recipe but substituted a Duncan Hines Strawberry Cake Mix, chilled the dough and formed it into about 1" balls. Dough is sticky - just keep it cold. Then I rolled those in strawberry sugar (strawberry Jello powder and regular sugar)... Now the problem is keeping my husband out of them until they are safely packed away...

These were wonderful! I made them as a Valentine treat for my hubby, and he was impressed. They are soft and wonderful. There's no need to provide a lot of space between them on the cookie sheet, as they rise and don't spread out much. I used pecans, and that made them nice and chewy. I will make these again and again!
