Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter adds richness and helps create a tender texture.
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar contributes to the cookie’s moisture and enhances the sweetness.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar provides sweetness and helps with that chewy texture.
  • 2 large Eggs bind everything together and add moisture.
  • 2 tablespoons Red Food Coloring gives that classic red velvet color.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract adds depth and warmth to the cookies' flavor.
  • 2.5 cups All-Purpose Flour provides structure to the cookies.
  • 1/3 cup Cocoa Powder infuses a rich chocolate flavor while balancing the sweetness.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda helps the cookies rise and maintain their softness.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt enhances the overall flavor of the cookies.
  • 1 cup White Chocolate Chips adds creamy sweetness and a delicious melt-in-your-mouth experience.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add in the eggs, red food coloring, and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until combined.
Cooking / Assembling
  1. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined.
  2. Fold in the white chocolate chips, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  3. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them a couple of inches apart.
  4. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges look set but the centers remain soft.
Serving
  1. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  2. Enjoy them warm or store them in an airtight container for later.

Notes

For softer cookies, try chilling your dough for 30 minutes before baking to enhance texture. Use a cookie scoop for quick portioning and store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for freshness. Freeze cookies for up to 3 months with layers of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
