Servings: 24
Ingredients
- 1 box Red Velvet Cake mix
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar or red decorating sugar
- 24 Hershey kisses or Ghirardelli milk chocolate drops, (they are my favorite)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a cookie sheet or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, oil, vanilla and eggs until well combined.
- Using a cookie scoop, or a spoon, grab tablespoon amounts of dough and roll into a ball.
- If the dough is too wet you can refrigerate it for 10-15 minutes.
- Roll the ball of dough into the granulated sugar or the red sugar.
- Either sugar will work fine, the red sugar just gives it a little more glimmer and pop.
- Place onto the cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes.
- As soon as the tray comes out of the oven press a chocolate drop into the middle of the cookie. Work fast as the cookies are harder to press as they cool.
- Move to a sheet of wax paper and allow the cookies and chocolate to completely cool before storing.
- Store in a covered container.
