Make soft and chewy red velvet cookies fast using only four simple ingredients. These cookies are perfect for holidays or quick dessert gifting.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) red velvet cake mix
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the entire box of red velvet cake mix, the melted butter, and the egg. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix the dough.
  3. If you are using white chocolate chips, gently fold them into the dough now.
  4. Scoop the dough using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop. Roll each scoop into a smooth ball.
  5. For a crinkle effect, roll the dough balls in powdered sugar before placing them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced two inches apart.
  6. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes. The edges should look set, but the centers will still look slightly soft.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. These are soft and chewy cookies when warm.

Notes

  • For a thicker, bakery-style cookie, chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping and baking.
  • If you skip the white chocolate chips, you have a true 3 ingredient desserts recipe.
  • Roll the dough balls generously in powdered sugar before baking to get the classic red velvet crinkle cookies look.
