RED VELVET COOKIES WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE CHUNKS



Red Velvet Cookies With White Chocolate Chunks image

As easy to make as your favorite chocolate chip recipe, these cookies pack the fun and flavor of red velvet cake into a simple, and much faster, cookie. Super sweet and tender with a slightly fudgy center, they contain creamy white chocolate chunks that nod to the snowy frosting on the cake version. For particularly pristine cookies, reserve some of the white chocolate chunks to arrange on top of the cookie, as they tend to get tinted pink when mixed into the batter.

Time 40m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), at room temperature
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons red food coloring, preferably gel
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups/195 grams all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 tablespoons buttermilk or whole milk
4 ounces/115 grams white chocolate, coarsely chopped into chunks (3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Move racks to the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the egg and mix until fully incorporated, about 1 minute more. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Add 1 tablespoon red food coloring (and up to 1 1/2 tablespoons for really red cookies) and vanilla extract and mix on medium speed to combine. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt to combine. Add to the mixer and mix on low speed until fully incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the buttermilk (or milk) and mix on low speed to combine, then scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Add about 3/4 of the white chocolate and mix on low speed to combine. Scoop 2 tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 1 1/2 inches between each piece. Use your palm to flatten the balls slightly.
  • Press the remaining white chocolate chunks into the surface of each piece of dough. Bake for 12 minutes, until the cookies appear set on the outside and puffed in the center, rotating the baking sheets halfway through. Cool completely on the baking sheet.

I found this recipe on a heart healthy recipe site. I made them and they are incredible! I couldn't believe it! They are the lowest fat/cholesterol/sodium chocolate chip cookies I've had that actually taste great! I did change it a bit when I made them by using 1/2 C whole wheat flour and 1/2 C all purpose flour.

How to make the best healthy chocolate chip cookie recipe that yields delicious soft and chewy cookies.

Provided by Chocolate Covered Katie

Categories     Dessert

Time 19m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup oat flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
4 tbsp coconut sugar or brown sugar
4 tbsp regular sugar, (unrefined if desired)
1/3 cup chocolate chips, (or more if desired)
optional 1/3 cup chopped nuts
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 tbsp vegetable or melted coconut oil
3-5 tbsp milk of choice, (as needed)

Steps:

  • Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe: Preheat oven to 380 degrees. Combine dry ingredients and mix very well. Add wet, and form into a big ball. Now make little balls from the big one. For soft cookies, refrigerate until cold (otherwise, just bake right away). Bake 9 minutes. Remove from oven when they're still a little undercooked, then it's important to let cool 10 minutes before removing from the tray, as they'll continue to cook while cooling. They should have spread out, but every now and then they might not (climate plays a huge role in baking), so just smush down with a spoon if needed. You can also choose to make extra cookie dough balls and freeze them to bake at a later date. For softer cookies, store in a lidded plastic container. For crispier cookies, store in a lidded glass container.View Nutrition Facts
