Red Velvet Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 1/3 cups (180 g/6.3 oz) all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons (20 g/0.7 oz) unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup (1 stick/113 g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- ½ cup (100 g/3.5 oz) brown sugar
- ½ cup (100 g/3.5 oz) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2-3 teaspoons red food coloring gel (or liquid)
- 1 cup dark or white chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a large bowl sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- Using a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugars on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract. Once mixed, add the food coloring (add 2 teaspoons at this point, and add more if needed, after the dry ingredients are mixed). Add the dry ingredients and beat on medium-low speed just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips. The batter will be sticky.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight. This will help the cookies stay thick and spread less while baking.
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C degrees. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Take cookies out of the fridge. If the cookie dough is hard to handle, leave it at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Drop rounded balls of dough, the size of 1.5-2 tablespoons, onto prepared baking sheet, spacing them 3 inches (8 cm) apart. Bake for 9-10 minutes, just until the edges start to set. Leave to cool on the pan for 10 minutes and then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Cookies can be frozen for up to 2 months.
