Sinful red velvet cake turns into delicious cookies in this super simple recipe, featuring red velvet flavored M&M's! Can't find the special M&M flavor? Substitute them for regular M&M's or pretzel M&M's, or leave them out altogether.
Ingredients
1 box red velvet cake mix
2 eggs
½ cup oil
Splash vanilla extract
½ cup white chocolate chips
½ cup red velvet M&M's (available at Walmart as a Valentine's Day special -- see note if you cannot find these M&M's)
Heart Sprinkles
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper, silicone liners, or mist lightly with cooking spray; set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, oil and vanilla extract with a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. Stir the M&M's and white chocolate chips in by hand until combined.
Using a cookie dough scoop, scoop Tablespoon-sized balls of cookie dough onto the prepared sheets, about 1" apart from another. Bake for approx. 8-10 minutes, rotating pans halfway through baking time to ensure an even cooking process. Remove from the oven and while still hot, sprinkle the tops liberally with heart shaped sprinkles. Likewise, you could also roll the dough balls in sprinkles before baking, but I wanted the tops to be sprinkly.
Cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely. Store airtight, at room temperature, up to a week.
