Barbecue sauce is to thank for my first friends-with-benefits situation. Why is it only chocolate sauce? If you are ever going to ask a woman to be your FWB in this exact same way, please be more specific than this guy was.
But the text did open the door for us to fuck, which was the actual goal of the whole conversation. Up-front communication is key in a friends-with-benefits relationship, if only to prevent thornier conversations later. After the first time you fuck a friend, the next chance you get to talk to them while clothed, bring it up. No one wants to take on that information from a FWB.
HOW Jokes are your friend here. The more playful and flirty you can be, the better. This will make it a lot easier to turn down your offer. Tinder just did 98 percent of the guesswork for you, so tackle the final step and set it up.
WHO Who to approach is almost as important as the how. An ex, for example, is a catastrophic idea in almost all cases, and ditto for anyone you consider a close friend. GBBO Girl is already part of your emotional support network; drafting her to your fuck roster is a no-no. You want someone who has never seen you cry at the end of Click.

The stakes of flirting with an acquaintance are much lower than trying to casually tell your best friend you've always thought about boning her, which will likely result in her questioning whether you guys were ever friends at all.
