FAQS
Can I use unsalted butter instead of salted butter?
Yes, you can use unsalted butter. In that case, add a pinch of salt to the dough.
Can I substitute the white chocolate chips with another type of chocolate?
Absolutely! Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or even chunks of your favorite candy bar would work well.
How should I store the red velvet cookies?
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Can I freeze the cookie dough?
Yes, you can freeze the cookie dough. Shape the dough into balls, place them on a baking sheet, and freeze until solid. Then, transfer them to a freezer bag and store for up to 2 months. Bake directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
What can I use instead of red food coloring?
You can use beetroot powder or natural food coloring alternatives for a similar color effect.
