Ingredients
Scale
1 box (15.25 ounces) red velvet cake mix
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the entire box of red velvet cake mix, the melted butter, and the eggs. Mix with a spoon or electric mixer until just combined. Do not overmix the dough.
Gently fold in the white chocolate chips.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The edges should look set, but the centers will still look slightly soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them set into a soft, chewy texture.
Notes
For an extra festive look, roll the dough balls in red sanding sugar before baking.
If you prefer a thicker cookie, chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping.
These cookies are excellent for gifting or serving at holiday parties.
