Valentine’s Day or the Christmas season is known for beautifully red baked goods. Let’s face the facts, you do not need to have a special occasion to make Red Velvet White Chocolate Chip Cookies. I know that I do not need a reason to bake.

These cookies are great because they have a beautiful, deep red color. Perfectly soft and chewy and contains tons of white chocolate chips (or whatever kind of chocolate chips you prefer). Plus the biggest plus, they are semi-homemade.

You will need one Red Velvet boxed cake mix and just a few more extra ingredients. Grab your mixing bowl and let’s get started.  No need to pull out your big mixer. I find it easier to mix in a bowl with a spatula.

Ingredients Needed To Make Red Velvet Cookies

• Red Velvet Cake Mix
• 6 tbsp Butter, Melted
• 2 Eggs
• 1 tsp Lemon Zest
• 1 cup White Chocolate Chips
• 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
• 1 tsp Cornstarch

Special Note: If your cake mix states “contains pudding” you will need to adjust your baking time. It will vary based on region. I have found in testing this recipe to add an additional 7 minutes to each batch.

How To Make These Box Cake Cookies

STEP ONE: First, you will want to preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

STEP TWO: Then, in a large bowl, place Red Velvet Cake Mix, Lemon Zest, melted butter, and eggs in a bowl. Mix well until incorporated. Then add in your favorite brand’s white chocolate chip morsels. Mix well.

STEP THREE: Next, in a small mixing bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and cornstarch, and set aside. Roll the dough into 1-inch-sized balls. To prevent sticking, you will need to roll them in a mixture of powdered sugar and cornstarch.

STEP THREE: Once your cookies have been evenly coated in powdered sugar, place them on a baking sheet at least 2 inches apart. Bake at 350 degrees for around 10 to 12 minutes.

Just a quick note: Your cookies will come out of the oven still pretty soft. It’s important to let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to help them retain their shape as they cool.

How to Store Your Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookies

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or store on the countertop in an airtight container for up to one week. If kept in the refrigerator, your cookies will be very hard.

You can also freeze these cookies. They hold up well. They will last up to 3 months in the freezer. Just keep them in a place that will protect them from damage.
