How to Make Red Velvet White Chocolate Chip Cookies
The best part about this recipe? All you’ve got to do is mix everything up, shape your cookies, and then it’s into the oven for less than 10 minutes! These gorgeous cookies are so easy to make! They’re perfect for a last-minute dessert.
Use Room Temperature Ingredients: This is one of the most important tips! Make sure your wet ingredients like eggs, butter, milk, etc. are at room temperature before adding them to your cookie batter. This takes a bit of extra preparation, but it will make your batter nice and smooth! Smooth batter = tasty lump-free cookies.Add More Cocoa: If you prefer your cookies to be more chocolatey, you can add a couple extra teaspoons of cocoa to your batter. Note: The added chocolate will make your cookies more of a dark crimson color and less red.Chocolate Chips: I personally love the creaminess of white chocolate, but for a more indulgent version of these cookies, add milk or dark chocolate chips instead!Underbake: If you want your cookies to be soft and chewy, the key is to take them out of the oven while the centers still look slightly underbaked. They will continue to cook on the hot cookie sheet! This is around minute 8 for me, but keep an eye on your cookies as different ovens have different cooking times.
At Room Temperature: Transfer cookies to an airtight container and store for 4-5 days.In the Freezer: You can freeze your dough for 1-2 months. Simply form into balls and place in a freezer bag. Let thaw in the fridge overnight before baking.
