Irresistible White Chocolate Red Velvet Cookies

Ingredients

Scale

    • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

    • 1 teaspoon baking soda

    • 1 teaspoon cocoa powder

    • ¼ teaspoon salt

    • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened at room temperature)

    • 1 cup granulated sugar

    • ½ cup packed brown sugar

    • 1 large egg

    • 2 tablespoons buttermilk

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    • 1 tablespoon red food coloring

    • 1 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven

I start by preheating my oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that my cookies bake evenly and achieve that perfect chewy texture.

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, I whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. This mix allows the flavors to meld while providing the right structure to my cookies.

  1. Cream the Butter and Sugars

In a large mixing bowl, I use an electric mixer to beat together 1/2 cup of unsalted butter (softened), 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup of brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This step usually takes about 2-3 minutes.

  1. Add Egg and Flavorings

Next, I add in 1 large egg, 1/2 cup of buttermilk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. I mix until everything is well combined, making sure the egg is fully integrated.

  1. Incorporate Red Food Coloring

I then mix in 2 tablespoons of red food coloring. This gives my cookies that vibrant red hue, making them visually striking.

  1. Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures

Gradually, I fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients using a spatula. I do this until just combined, being careful not to overmix, as it keeps my cookies tender.

  1. Add White Chocolate Chips

Finally, I gently fold in 1 cup of white chocolate chips into the dough. The sweet morsels will melt slightly while baking and create delightful pockets of creamy goodness.

  1. Scoop the Dough

Using a cookie scoop, I drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. This gives them room to spread.

  1. Bake the Cookies

I bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. The cookies will puff slightly and develop a nice crackled top.

  1. Cool and Enjoy
