Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Dough

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp red food coloring

Decoration

  • 12 oz white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375° F (190° C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the room temperature unsalted butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is fluffy and light in texture. Add the egg and mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients evenly.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients and Food Coloring: Incorporate the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into the wet mixture and stir until fully combined. Then, add the red food coloring and mix well to ensure the dough takes on a vibrant red hue.
  4. Scoop Dough: Using a tablespoon measure, scoop out cookie dough portions and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they have room to expand during baking.
  5. Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are set and cookies are just firm to the touch. Remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet.
  6. Melt White Chocolate: While the cookies cool, melt the white chocolate chips gently using a double boiler method or microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between to prevent burning and achieve a smooth melt.
  7. Dip Cookies: Once the cookies are fully cooled, dip half of each cookie into the melted white chocolate, then place back onto parchment paper to allow the white chocolate to harden and set.
  8. Finalize and Serve: Let the dipped cookies sit at room temperature until the white chocolate has cooled and solidified, then enjoy your beautifully coated White Chocolate Dipped Red Velvet Cookies!

Notes

  • Ensure butter is at room temperature to achieve a fluffy cookie dough base.
  • Red food coloring intensity can be adjusted to your preference for color vibrancy.
  • Use a parchment-lined baking sheet for easy cookie removal and clean-up.
  • White chocolate can be tempered for a shinier finish, but it is optional.

  • Microwave white chocolate carefully to avoid burning; stir frequently during heating.
