These cookies are perfect for holidays, special occasions, or just when you feel like treating yourself to a sweet, decadent dessert. With a striking red hue and a beautiful crinkled appearance, these cookies are sure to impress both visually and tastefully.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
110g
1/2 cup sugar
100g
1/2 cup brown sugar
120g
2 tsp vanilla extract
8g
2 eggs
100g
1 cup self-raising flour
150g
1 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
120g
1 tbsp dry cocoa powder
16g
1 cup powdered sugar
160g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugars:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Add the Wet Ingredients:
Add the vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Ensure the mixture is smooth and well combined.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour, all-purpose flour, and dry cocoa powder until well mixed.
5. Form the Dough:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, beating on low speed until just combined. The dough will be soft but manageable.
6. Chill the Dough:
Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Chilling the dough ensures easier handling and better results when baking.
7. Shape the Cookies:
After chilling, remove the dough from the refrigerator. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls using your hands.
8. Coat with Powdered Sugar:
Roll each dough ball in the powdered sugar until fully coated. Place the sugar-coated balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
9. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops have a crackled appearance. The centers may still look slightly underbaked, which is ideal for a soft cookie texture.
10. Cool:
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Serve:
Once cooled, serve your Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage and enjoy!

Tips:

- Ensure your butter is at room temperature before starting to make it easier to cream with the sugars.

- Chill the dough for at least 1 hour to make it easier to handle and to help the cookies maintain their shape while baking.

- Use a small cookie scoop to ensure evenly sized cookies and prevent overworking the dough.

- Roll the dough balls generously in powdered sugar to achieve that classic crinkled appearance when baked.

- Bake the cookies until the edges are set but the centers are still soft to ensure a chewy texture.

- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Red velvet crinkle cookies are a must-try for anyone who loves the flavor of red velvet cake and the convenience of cookies. The combination of rich cocoa and the sweetness of the powdered sugar coating creates a perfect balance that will satisfy any sweet tooth. Enjoy these cookies fresh out of the oven with a cold glass of milk or paired with a cup of your favorite coffee.
