I love red velvet. Of course, there’s red velvet cake and cupcakes, but my craze has lead me to other 
variations of this delicious, velvety treat, from red velvet donuts to red velvet ice cream. So when I saw Cooking Classy’s recipe for simply amazing looking red velvet cookies, I had to try them out.
The great advantage to red velvet cookies over red velvet cake is the time it 
takes to make each. By far, cookies are way simpler and way less time consuming. Since I wanted to take something for my friends for back to school, this combined with the portability of cookies made them a great idea. Needless to say, these cookies were a hit, and I had to bring more back the next day. Luckily, I found this recipe made lots (over a dozen!) and I had enough to go around.
These cookies were straight forward to make and turned out soft and chewy. The white chocolate chips were the perfect look-a-like for cream cheese frosting and the cookies were very picturesque. I’ll definitely be whipping up a batch of these come Valentine’s Day.
If you love red velvet, these cookies are for you! They definitely have the red velvet look and taste. The only change I’d make to this recipe is really more of a modification, and for those creative bakers, I’d suggest trying it. Make each cookie smaller, about macaroon size or maybe a little smaller. Then once they’re cooked put a dollop of cream cheese icing in between the middle of two cookies to make mini red velvet whoopie pies. Definitely the cookie concept I’m trying next!
