Deliciously soft and chewy red velvet cookies filled with a creamy, dreamy cream cheese surprise.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, food coloring, and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  4. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Prepare the cream cheese filling by beating together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
  6. Shape the cookie dough around a small teaspoon of cream cheese filling to form balls.
  7. Arrange the cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are set but centers are soft.

Notes

If the dough is too sticky, chill it in the fridge before shaping. For extra decadence, consider adding chocolate chips or drizzling melted chocolate on top.
