Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15.25 oz) red velvet cake mix
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional, for extra flavor)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the entire box of red velvet cake mix, the melted butter, and the egg. Mix with a spoon or spatula until just combined into a thick dough. Do not overmix.
- If you are using white chocolate chips, gently fold them into the dough now.
- Scoop the dough using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop. Roll the dough into balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The edges should look set, but the centers will still look slightly soft.
- Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a crinkle cookie look, roll the dough balls in powdered sugar before baking.
- If you prefer thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping.
- These cookies are perfect for Valentine’s Day or Christmas cookie platters.
