Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
Supporting Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Finishing Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon red food coloring
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Heat oven to precisely 350°F with rack centered. Line baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Cream 1 cup softened butter with 1 ½ cups granulated sugar and 1 cup brown sugar until smooth and fluffy.
- Crack 2 large eggs into mixture, then pour 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Blend until completely combined.
- Sift 3 cups flour, ¼ cup cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt together in separate bowl.
- Slowly incorporate dry ingredients into butter mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix your dough.
- Pour 1 tablespoon red food coloring into batter, stirring until color is uniform and vibrant.
- Fold 1 cup white chocolate chips gently into cookie dough, distributing evenly throughout.
- Scoop rounded tablespoon-sized balls onto prepared baking sheets, keeping 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake at 350°F for exactly 11 minutes until edges look set but centers remain slightly soft.
- Remove sheets from oven and let cookies rest 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack for complete cooling.
Notes
- Check the food coloring amount carefully to achieve that classic vibrant red color without affecting the cookie’s taste.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading and create a thicker, softer cookie texture.
- Use high-quality cocoa powder for a rich, deep chocolate flavor that complements the red velvet profile.
- For a gluten-free version, swap regular flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend to maintain the cookie’s soft consistency.
