Ingredients
1 box red velvet cake mix
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup white chocolate chips
1/4 cup extra white chocolate chips for topping
2 tablespoons powdered sugar optional, for serving
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Add the red velvet cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to a large mixing bowl.
3. Stir until a thick cookie dough forms and no dry cake mix remains.
4. Fold in 1 cup white chocolate chips, saving the extra chips for topping.
5. Scoop the dough into 1 1/2 tablespoon balls and place them a few inches apart on the baking sheet.
6. Press a few extra white chocolate chips onto the tops of the dough balls.
7. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly soft.
8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then move them to a wire rack.
9. Dust lightly with powdered sugar if desired and serve once set.
Notes
Do not overbake these cookies. Pull them from the oven when the centers still look slightly soft, because they continue setting on the hot baking sheet and stay much chewier.
