RED VELVET CRINKLE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Put the baking chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and melt it in the microwave. Stir and let cool.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the granulated sugar and butter until light and fluffy. With the mixer on low, slowly drizzle in the cooled chocolate. Scrape the bowl and mix again. Mix in the eggs one at a time, then add the buttermilk, food coloring and vanilla. Scrape the bowl and mix once more.
• Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl and stir together. Add the flour mixture in 2 increments into the mixing bowl with the mixer on low. Scrape the bowl once and mix a final time until well combined. Fold in the chunked white chocolate.
• Scoop generous tablespoons of the dough, roll in the confectioners' sugar until generously coated and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the cookies are poufy and set, about 12 minutes. Let them sit on the baking sheet for 1 to 2 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining dough. Cool the cookies for 30 minutes and then recoat with confectioners' sugar if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Scrape down the bowl and add the eggs one at a time, beating between each addition. Add the vanilla and red food coloring, and mix well.
• In a separate bowl sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to combine. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and beat together until combined.
• Fill one bowl with granulated sugar and one bowl with powdered sugar. Use a 1 ounce cookie scoop (or tablespoon) to scoop cookies out. Roll the balls first in the granulated sugar and then in the powdered sugar to completely coat the cookie balls. Place on the prepared cookie sheet an inch apart. Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies have puffed up and cracked, but are still a little gooey in the center.
• Allow to cool and enjoy with a glass of milk!

RED VELVET CRINKLE COOKIES

Steps:

• For the cookies: Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl, then set aside. Whisk together the granulated sugar, butter, buttermilk, food coloring, vanilla and eggs in another bowl. Fold the flour mixture into the sugar mixture with a rubber spatula until smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes (it will still be soft).
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F; line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Put some confectioners' sugar in a shallow bowl. Scoop the chilled dough with a tablespoon and drop into the confectioners' sugar to completely coat. Transfer to one of the prepared baking sheets and position the dough balls about 3 inches apart; they will spread to about 3 inches in diameter once done. Bake until the cookies are slightly firm to the touch with no dark spots and dry on top, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet about 10 minutes; the bottoms should just barely lift off the baking sheet and the cookies will still be slightly soft.
• While the first batch of cookies are baking, scoop and coat another batch of dough and transfer to the second baking sheet. Bake the second batch while the first batch is cooling. Repeat with the remaining dough.
• For the filling: Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, butter and vanilla until no lumps remain and the filling is smooth.
• When the cookies are cool, spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese filling on the bottom (flat sides) of half of the cookies. Top each with one of the remaining cookies, bottom (flat side) facing in.

RED VELVET CRINKLE COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer on medium speed in a large bowl until fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition; mix in the raspberry liqueur.
• Sift the red velvet cake mix into the bowl and stir until completely blended and the mixture forms a dough. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Using your hands, roll 1 teaspoon of dough at a time into a ball, and then roll each ball in the desired decoration. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, about 3 inches apart. These will be baked in three batches, so it is best to keep the dough in the refrigerator while one batch is baking, and roll them right before they go into the oven.
• Bake until the cookies spread and the tops begin to crackle, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, and then remove to a rack to cool completely.

RED VELVET CRINKLE COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a medium bowl with an electric mixer), cream the butter and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Reduce the speed to low, and add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Add the food coloring and vanilla, and mix until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, sea salt and baking soda. Add half the flour mixture to the wet ingredients in the mixing bowl, draping a kitchen towel over the mixer and bowl to contain the flour cloud if desired, and mix well. Repeat with the remaining flour mixture. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• Pour the confectioners' sugar into a shallow bowl. Scoop the dough into heaping 2-tablespoon scoops (about 30 grams each) and roll into balls. Roll the dough balls in the confectioners' sugar until thickly coated all over. (You shouldn't be able to see any of the dough peeking through.)
• Transfer to the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow room for the cookies to spread. Spoon the remaining confectioners' sugar from the shallow bowl into a sifter, and sift the sugar generously over the cookies until they are well covered. You want a solid layer, about 1/8-inch thick, of sugar on top for maximum crinkle effect. (If the cookies are not thickly coated, the sugar will simply be absorbed into the dough during baking.)
• Transfer the cookies to the oven, one sheet at a time, and bake until the cookies are set and the surface is crackly, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool completely on the baking sheet.
