Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.33 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup butter, softened
• 0.75 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup white sugar
• 1 egg egg
• 1.5 tablespoons milk
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons red food coloring
• 1 cup dark chocolate chips, or as needed

Instructions

1. Prepare all of your ingredients.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
3. In a large bowl, cream the butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the brown sugar and white sugar until smooth, approximately 1 minute. Blend in the egg, milk, and vanilla extract; then, mix in the food coloring until the batter achieves a consistent, vibrant color.
4. Gradually mix the flour mixture into the butter mixture on low speed until just combined. Stir in 1 cup of chocolate chips. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight.
5. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll the dough into 2-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, flattening them slightly.
6. Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Garnish the cookies with a few extra chocolate chips. Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets.
