This red velvet cookies recipe could not be any simpler; with only 6 ingredients and one bowl, you'll be on your way to making these vibrant, pillowy cookies.
Prep: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the red velvet cake mix, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until a thick, smooth dough forms. Fold in the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the Cookies: Bake for 9–11 minutes or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly cracked. The cookies may appear soft in the center, but they will firm up as they cool. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Using room-temperature eggs helps the dough mix more evenly, resulting in better texture.
For variety, try swapping the white chocolate chips for semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
