These days — you see “red velvet” everything. Some of the recipes are labor intensive, some easy, but all have the chocolate taste you love and that unmistakable red hue. Red velvet is perfect for the upcoming love bird holiday (great for Christmas too!) but I say it’s great any time of the year. These red velvet cookies are unbelievably easy to make. Next time you’re at the grocery store, pick up a box of red velvet cake mix (any brand!). That’s where the fun begins. To the cake mix, you add melted butter, a couple of eggs and stir stir stir! Then you roll the batter into balls, coat the balls in a mixture of powdered sugar and cornstarch, and bake. So easy and delicious!
These thick, chewy cookies are full of the red velvet flavor you love. They’re perfect to send off to school with your kids. Or for a Valentine’s bake sale. Or to mail to a friend who might need a little surprise on Valentine’s Day. Or you could just eat them yourself. That would be a good idea too. A very good idea. If you’re still looking for some fun cookie recipes, make sure to check out these dark chocolate and pecan cookies, or these whole wheat chocolate chip cookies. I’m also loving these easy three ingredient peanut butter cookies from Barefeet in the Kitchen! You can also find the red velvet cookie recipe on Food Fanatic. Quick-Start Guide!
