Red Velvet Cake

As for what dry cake mix, I would say use your favorite red velvet cake mix. We enjoy the bright red color from Duncan Hines. But that's the beauty of these cookies, they can be made with any flavor of cake mix. Here are a few questions you might have before you get started:

Is Red Velvet Cake Mix Just Chocolate?

Taste is a big part of what makes chocolate and red velvet cakes special! Chocolate cake gets its yummy flavor from cocoa powder, chocolate chips, or melted chocolate. Meanwhile, red velvet cake has cocoa powder too, which gives it a hint of chocolate taste. But what makes red velvet stand out is its tangy twist from buttermilk and vinegar. This special combo gives red velvet its unique flavor, making it different and delicious compared to chocolate cake!

What's so special about red velvet cake?

Red velvet cake is like a chocolate cake but with a fun twist! Regular chocolate cake uses one kind of cocoa called Dutch-processed cocoa. But red velvet cake uses a different kind called unprocessed cocoa. It's a bit tangy and makes the chocolate flavor pop even more!

How to Make Red Velvet Cookies With Cake Mix

Ready to make these delicious cookies either for Valentine's Day or Christmas? Let's get started.

• Start by preheating the oven to 350°F. Use parchment paper to line your large cookie sheet or baking sheet
• In a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer or electric mixer, combine cake mix with oil and eggs until well mixed. The cookie dough will be thick and sticky.
• Place dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to help stiffen. This makes the dough easier to work with.

• Scoop the dough out in 1 to 1 ½ tablespoons approximately a small cookie scoop. Using your hands, roll the dough into balls. Then, place the cookie dough balls in the powdered sugar and coat all sides. Place the cookie dough balls on the baking sheet approximately 2 inches apart.

• Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are set on the edges and crinkled across the top.
• Allow the cookies to rest for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

• Melt white chocolate according to package directions being careful not to overheat.

• Dip each of the cooled cookies halfway into the melting chocolate.

• Immediately add sprinkles over the wet candy coating. Place on parchment or waxed paper to allow the chocolate to set completely.

Your cookies will be ready to wrap up and give as a gift or enjoyed at home. Store in an airtight container!

Happy Baking!
