Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup brown sugar packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ - 2 teaspoons red gel food coloring
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a medium bowl, sift together 1 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon of baking soda, ¼ teaspoon of baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Set this dry mixture aside for later use.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together ½ cup of softened unsalted butter, ½ cup of packed brown sugar, and ½ cup of white sugar using an electric mixer. Beat on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Add two egg yolks to the creamed mixture, one at a time, ensuring each yolk is fully incorporated before adding the next. Then, mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and ½ to 1 teaspoon of red gel food coloring. Adjust the amount of food coloring based on your desired shade of red.
- Gradually incorporate the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined, being careful not to overmix to maintain a tender cookie texture.
- Fold in 1 cup of white chocolate chips gently with a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Use a tablespoon or a cookie scoop to portion out equal-sized dough balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each ball to allow for spreading.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The cookies are done when the edges are set, yet the centers remain slightly soft. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before enjoying.
