Ingredients
- 1, (15.25 oz. box) red velvet cake mix
- 1 tsp. cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 8 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cold, cut into cubes
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine the cake mix, cornstarch and salt in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
- Cream the butter and sugar together using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, on medium speed until light and fluffy, ~2-3 minutes.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract and use a rubber spatula to knock mixture off edges of mixing bowl as needed.
- Add in dry ingredients, gradually until ingredients are incorporated.
- Add in the white chocolate chips and mix just until they are combined. Dough will be sticky.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill cookie dough in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Measure out cookies, about 2 Tbsp. in size, and place on baking sheet. (I bake 6 cookies at a time).
- Bake in preheated oven for 10-11 minutes or until the edges look cooked but the middles are still soft and puffy. (Cookies will look puffy right when you take them out and the will settle a little bit as they cool).
- Let cookies cool for 15-20 minutes on the cookie sheet, then move to a wire rack to cool completely and enjoy! Continue baking remaining cookies, or place remaining cookie dough in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

Notes
- Make a cream cheese frosting to spread on top for an even more decadent cookie! My favorite cookie cream cheese frosting can be found on this carrot cake cookie blog post.
- Turn these into a red velvet crinkle cookie by rolling cookies in powdered sugar before baking. Perfect for Christmas!
- Use dark chocolate chips instead of white chocolate if desired.
- Don’t skip chilling the dough. The dough will be very sticky to work with and the cookies will spread.
