Red velvet thumbprint cookies with white chocolate filling - a delectable twist on a classic dessert.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 teaspoons red food color
  • 2 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened baking cocoa
  • 1 bag (11 oz) white vanilla baking chips (about 2 cups)
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat butter and sugar until creamy. Stir in egg, food coloring, and vanilla until well blended. Then, mix in flour, cocoa, and salt until fully combined on low speed.
  • Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. Use your thumb to gently make an indentation in the center of each cookie, being careful not to press all the way through.
  • Bake for 12 minutes or until set. Allow to cool for 2 minutes, then quickly reshape indentations with the end of a wooden spoon, if needed. Transfer to a cooling rack. Let cool completely, approximately 10 minutes.
  • Microwave white baking chips in a small bowl on High for 30 to 50 seconds, stirring once, until smooth. Transfer melted chips to a resealable plastic bag, snip off a corner, and pipe filling into each thumbprint cookie. Allow to set.
