Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies are a must-try delight, known for their gorgeous appearance and soft, chewy texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar for rolling

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs, red food coloring, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
  7. Once chilled, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.
  8. Roll each ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
  9. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
  11. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a more intense red color, you can add more food coloring.
  • Make sure not to overbake the cookies to maintain their chewy texture.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
