Indulge in these gooey white chocolate chip New York style red velvet cookies that are pure cookie heaven! Perfectly soft and rich, these cookies are a must-try for any cookie lover.

Ingredients

For the cookies:

  • 125 g unsalted butter
  • 100 g light brown sugar
  • 75 g white granulated sugar
  • 1 medium egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp red food colouring
  • 265 g plain flour
  • 15 g cocoa powder
  • 1 + 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 300 g white chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)

Instructions

  1. Add your butter and sugars to a bowl and beat until creamy – using a stand mixer with the beater attachment is recommended. Add in the egg, vanilla, and red food colouring; beat again.
  2. Add the plain flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt; beat until a cookie dough forms.
  3. Integrate the white chocolate chips evenly into the dough.
  4. Divide the dough into eight balls and chill in the freezer for at least 30 minutes or in the fridge for an hour.
  5. Preheat the oven to 180°C Fan (200°C regular).
  6. Place the chilled dough balls on a lined baking tray and bake for 12-14 minutes.
  7. Cool the cookies on the tray for at least 30 minutes before enjoying!

Notes

  • Best enjoyed freshly baked, but can be reheated for a few seconds in the microwave or oven.
  • Raw cookie dough can be frozen and baked from frozen.
  • Cookies will last 4-5+ days once baked.
  • Quality ingredients like recommended red food colouring and white chocolate are suggested for best results.
  • Adjust oven temperature if needed based on individual oven settings.
  • For sugar substitution, use either all granulated or all light brown sugar to maintain texture.
  • If using self-raising flour, omit baking powder but retain bicarbonate of soda.
