These pink velvet cookies will be a big hit this Valentine’s day. My husband loves a classic red velvet cake or cookie so I decided to make a new version – pink velvet cookie with chocolate chips. These cookies are soft and delicious and will be the perfect touch to a Valentine’s Day dessert.

Pink Velvet Cookies with Chocolate Chips
Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 drop of soft pink gel food coloring
1 3/4 cup flour
1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Cream butter and sugar together in a mixer with a paddle
attachment until light and fluffy.
Add in the egg and mix, about 2 minutes.
Add in the cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, almond and vanilla
extract and food coloring.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula and mix again
for another minute.
Add in the flour and mix until fully combined.
Mix in the chocolate chips.
Chill the dough for at least 2 hours.
Scoop the dough into about 1 TBSP scoops and roll into a ball.
Place your cookies 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes.
Let cool 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
This cookie recipe is so easy to make but the key is to
chill the dough for at least 2 hours. Sometimes I allow the dough to chill
overnight. You can also roll into balls and then refrigerate the dough in ball
form if you like. We don’t have enough refrigerator space to do that but either
way works just fine.
I added milk chocolate chips but you can easily substitute
white chocolate or dark chocolate chips as well. Dipping one side into melted
dark chocolate would be a nice variation to your recipe as well.
