Expert Tips

I highly recommend using a cookie scoop, that way all your cookies are evenly shaped and bake up at the same time. Otherwise, you will find that the cookies bake up evenly.

But having the same size cookies, they all will bake up the same time, and be fluffy, light and done!

Ingredients

• Red Velvet Cake Mix – Any brand of cake mix works. I used a 15.25 oz box. I love using Betty Crocker, but reach for any brand. Or buy what is on sale.
• Egg – Large eggs are what I used when making these cookies.
• Oil – Canola or vegetable oil work well for this cookie recipe. I do not recommend olive oil.
• White Chocolate Chips – The white chocolate chips add a delicious sweetness to each bite. You can use milk chocolate chip or semi-sweet chips.
