Red velvet cookies with white chocolate chips
What unites these cookies with red velvet cake is the cocoa-containing dough used to make the cookies and food coloring to give them a red color. I used Indian red food coloring which is supposed to be natural. You can add twice as much food coloring to get cookies with more intense red. White chocolate adds interest to the cookies both in terms of taste and appearance.
Happy Valentine’s Day 2023 everyone!!
