Here’s a recipe idea for Red Velvet Oreo Cookies. These cookies combine the classic flavors of red velvet cake with the crunch of Oreo pieces, creating a perfect treat!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp red food coloring
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 10 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Cream the butter and sugars: In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add wet ingredients: Mix in the egg, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until well combined.
Combine the mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the Oreos and white chocolate chips: Gently fold the chopped Oreo cookies and white chocolate chips into the dough.
Scoop the dough: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, form dough balls (about 1-2 tablespoons each) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between cookies.
Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set, but the centers are still soft. They will firm up as they cool.
Cool and enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Make ahead: You can freeze the dough balls for up to 3 months. Just bake from frozen and add an extra minute or two to the baking time.
- Variations: For an extra crunch, try adding a few extra crushed Oreos on top of the cookies before baking.
