Bakery Style Red Velvet Cookies
These Bakery Style Red Velvet Cookies have white chocolate chips have the flavor of red velvet that you love, but the texture of a chewy cookie. As an added bonus these can be dye free!
Ingredients
- Butter - softened unsalted butter is used for this recipe.
- Sugar - granulated sugar and brown sugar. I have tried this cookie recipe with only granulated sugar in the dough, but love the extra chewiness that brown sugar adds to the cookies
- Egg - for structure in your dough. It acts as a binding ingredient to hold everything together.
- Vanilla Extract - for added warmth.
- White Vinegar - For that added acid flavor that red velvet is known for.
- Food Coloring - Gel or Powder Red Food Coloring. The powder one is dye free!
- Flour - regular all purpose flour is best in these cookies.
- Cocoa Powder - dutch processed is my go to!
- Salt - for added flavor
- Baking Powder and Baking Soda - I use a combination of both in almost all my cookies. I find that it gives the cookies the perfect amount of thickness when baking.
- White Chocolate Chips - the perfect pairing for red velvet!
How to make Bakery Style Red Velvet Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add in egg, vanilla extract, vinegar, and food coloring. Mix to combine.
- Add in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until flour just starts to disappear, then fold in white chocolate chips.
- Using a large cookie scooper, scoop out 6 cookie dough balls and place onto a prepared baking sheet. Flatten to desired size.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes and allow to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
- Enjoy!
How to Store These Red Velvet Cookies
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Or freeze them for 2 months. Just let them thaw in the air tight container before opening so they can soften back up.
What if I don't want Jumbo Cookies?
You can make 12 smaller cookies! Follow all the same directions, just divide dough into 12 scoops and bake for 8-10 minutes.
