I agree with clm and rdbass...
1. Her hips need to start the rotation before her hands
fix... stretch and fire uncoiling drills
2. Back elbow gets in front of her hands
fix... reverse top hand drills
3. Not enough weight transfer
fix... happy gillmore drills
These three simple drills will have a dramatic effect on her swing. Master these techniques before moving into heavy ball drills.

New guy here so I understand if nobody listens. I have had success fixing this issue with a combination of fence drills and tee work with tee placed a little forward in the swing and a lot inside. Think left toe middle of the plate and six inches off the plate. This ball placement encourages hands inside the ball and they can't get there with the hips in the way. I also place a target on the net aiming back up the middle. If you can get DD to hit this target with this tee placement and not allowing her to step in the bucket the swing should be pretty good.
