I can assure you that this is the best red velvet chocolate chip cookies recipe. Simple ingredients, easy instructions, yields these gorgeous looking cookies.
- 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 and 1/2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated white sugar
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons Ener-G egg replacer
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons red food color
- 3/4 cup white chocolate chips
- In a mixing bowl stir together the flour, cocoa, cornstarch, baking powder, salt and set aside.
- In another large bowl beat together the butter and sugar until its light and creamy.
- Now add the vinegar, Ener-G, water, vanilla extract, food color and beat well.
- Stir in the flour mix into the wet mix and mix well. Stir in about 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips and retain the rest. (See My Notes).
- The dough might appear to be sticky, so I would suggest to refrigerate it for at least an hour before you can bake the cookies.
- Preheat the oven at 375F/190C for 15 minutes.
- On a lightly greased cookie sheet scoop out about a tablespoon of dough for each cookie and slightly flatten it. (See My Notes)
- Bake for about 9-11 minutes. Remove the cookie sheet from the oven and leave it on a wire cooling rack for it to cool. Now press the reserved chocolate chips on the warm cookies in a neat pattern to make it look attractive.
- After about 8-10 minutes remove the cookies from the cookie sheet and let it cool completely on the wire rack before storing it in an air-tight container.
- These eggless red velvet chocolate chip cookies start out to be crisp around the edges and have a chewy center when it's fresh and then becomes softer throughout after a couple of hours. It has the perfect sweetness, taste, and texture. My kids loved it. So did I.
- For cookies, I suggest you do a test bake with one or two cookies, see how it turns out, and then bake the rest accordingly. This will give you a clear picture if a cookie will spread too much or not if you should flatten it or not.
- I was skeptical about sticking the chocolate chips on warm cookies but did it anyhow and was pleasantly surprised with the result. It had a neat appearance and looked beautiful. This is especially a great idea if you want to photograph the cookies. But the chocolate chips will be in a semi-solid state because of the heat from the cookies, so you might have to wait for a while to store the cookies in a container, or else when you top one cookie over the other, the melted chocolate chip with a stick to the cookies.
