How To Make Red Velvet Cookies
Start by putting the red velvet cake mix, oil, and eggs into a bowl and stir until combined.
Stir in the white chocolate chips. The white chocolate chips are optional and could be replaced with semi-sweet chocolate chips if preferred.
The red velvet cookie dough batter is thick, so you probably don’t want to stir this recipe by hand.
Use a two tablespoon size cookie dough scoop to form balls of dough.
Roll the cookie dough balls in powdered sugar and place them on a parchment-covered baking sheet.
How do you get the crinkle top on the red velvet cookies?
Cookies naturally have cracks in the top that form while baking. Since these red velvet crinkle cookies are dark in color and have been rolled in white powdered sugar, the cracks stand out when the cookies are baked.
Bake the red velvet cookies at 375˚F for 6-8 minutes.
Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack, and then store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to four days or in the freezer for up to four weeks.
Since theese cookies are so easy to make, you don’t have to wait for a special occasion! That being said, they would be the perfect thing to serve at Christmas, Valentine’s Day, and the Fourth of July.
