Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies

What is it about red velvet cookies that make me so happy!? The deep fantastic red color? Who knows, but what I do know is that these simple, no fuss, make in about 15 minute cookies are to die for! Try them for yourself, you’ll see what I’m talking about. As if they are not good enough, I’ve added giant chunks of Dark Milky Way bars to the dough with some cute little mini chocolate chips. Enjoy friends!

How To Make Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a large baking sheet with a silpat liner or parchment paper.
  2. Place cake mix, butter, egg and oil into a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine. Cut up Milky Way bars into chunks and stir into dough along with the chocolate chips. Scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet placing about 1 inch apart. Press each cookie down almost flat about 1/2 inch thick.

Ok, time for these midnight dark Milky Way bars. If you haven’t tried these before, they really don’t taste like dark chocolate and they are soooo much better than the original Milky Ways. Trust me on this one.

Scoop nice scoops of dough onto your silpat liner. Parchment paper works great too.

Press each cookie flat before baking. I like how they bake much better this way.
