Red Velvet Cookies-bakeitout
Hello! here I am with another cookie recipe but a twist with red velvet, soft chewy crumbled.Generally red velvet is not too chocolaty or only vanilla it is a mixed taste of both, best suited for those who don't like to eat more chocolaty or vanilla flavored ones and best suited for any occasion.Think about having freshly baked red velvet cookies with warm milk,is it not tempting.So lets get started.....
INGREDIENTS:
-200g flour
-20g cocoa powder
-1 tsp baking powder
-1/4 tsp salt
-115g softened, unsalted butter
-150g brown sugar
-50g caster sugar
-1 large egg
-2 tbsp natural yoghurt
-1.5 tsp vanilla extract
-1.5 tsp red food color paste
-100g white chocolate chips
PROCEDURE:
-In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, set aside. -Mix together the butter and sugar(both brown and white sugar), mix until creamy and smooth(no need to be very fluffy).
-In another bowl add egg, yoghurt, vanilla extract and last but not the least food color to achieve the intense red color you’re looking for.Whisk really well until they get combined well.
-Add it to your butter mixture until well combined, smooth and fluffy.
-Add the dry ingredients and mix them until they get well combined but don't over mix.Then finally add the chocolate chips. -Place the dough in a bowl, cover and refrigerate for an hour.
-Roll the cookie dough into balls using a scoop or a spoon to keep them in equal size and place them on the baking sheet covered with parchment paper 1 inch apart.You can even store the dough(for a week or two and bring it back to room temperature before baking).
-Bake in the 175 c preheated oven for 10-12 mins.And let them cool before you serve.(You can pierce some chocolate chips on the top when they are hot enough when removed from the oven to make it more attractive.)
(you can even serve it with cream cheese frosting(recipe for cream cheese frosting is mentioned in before recipes like red velvet macarons)in inbetween two cookies as a cookie sandwich)
