Believe it or not I am not a big cookie person. Like I LOVE them, they are one of my favorite treats, but I don’t make them very often.
You would think that I would considering my love for all things dessert like cupcakes, shortbread bars, cakes and so much more.
I think I am a bit intimidated by cookies to be honest, I love them, but if they are not perfect I don’t want them. A little harsh, I know but I really love a good cookie!
Red Velvet Cheesecake Cookies
I was a little scared to make these, but I had confidence in them since the recipe resembles my famous red velvet cupcake recipe. Plus cheesecake INSIDE of a cookie? I like this kind of challenge.
These cookies were fairly simple to make. Cream butter and sugar, add the egg and vanilla extract, add the flour, powder and cocoa powder to the mixer.
Then add the food coloring. I didn’t have any gel food coloring just the liquid and I added a few drops until I was satisfied with the color.
On the side mix cream cheese and sugar, and let it chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
After that add some cookie dough, put some of the cheesecake mixture in the middle, and add some more red velvet cookie dough — I laid it flat on top but you can roll it together in a ball for a more perfect cookie!
Bake for 15-17 minutes at 350 degrees and voila! You have some amazing red velvet cheesecake cookies.
Check out the video below of how to make them!

I love the idea of a red velvet cookie, but I especially love the idea even better with the cream cheese filling. I know what cookie recipe I am adding this Christmas! Thank you!
