Red Velvet Double Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Red Velvet just seemed so appropriate for the Christmas tray this season. I not only love these cookies but the name is even comforting in cooler months. I just thought it was time to make a new one this year and this is it. I had the recipe tucked away and this must make cookie was on my list and now finally made their debut this year! Glad I finally made them ... a great addition!

Red Velvet Double Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

1 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoons white vinegar
3 cups flour
2/3 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons red food coloring
1 cup chocolate chips

1 bag white chocolate melts ( I used Wiltons for garnish) or use white chocolate chips 4 or 5 on each one

Red and Green mixed non pareils

 This is the first important step here not to miss, cream the sugars along with the butter in a heavy duty mixer. Whip for around 4 minutes.  Add the eggs, vanilla, red food coloring, vinegar and mix for around 1 minute. Add all the dry ingredients except chips, blend in the heavy duty mixer just until all combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

Bake at 375 degree preheated oven(12 to 15 minutes) on parchment paper dropping by spoonfuls at least 2 inches apart. Immediately top with white disc chocolate melts, let them sit on the centers of the hot cookies, spread when melted garnish with colored non pareils. You can melt the chocolate candy first if you prefer then frost. Either way works fine.
