The following are the top 5 searched recipes on Google this year in the United States:

No. 5: DoubleTree cookie

No. 4: Dole Whip

Trying the Dole Whip dessert at Disneyland in California is a must. However, with COVID-19 restrictions this year, many decided to make their own at home after Disney and Dole released their recipe versions of the frozen pineapple dessert online.
