Happy Valentine's Day! In honor of this holiday that lands on week 8, I made Chewy Red Velvet Cookies. Unfortunately, they disappeared so fast that I couldn't get a picture of them. But it's red velvet, in cookie form. Pretty self explanatory picture. I love Red Velvet, and I really wanted to find a recipe for chewy cookies. Mission Accomplished!
This recipe is from www.howsweeteats.com
Chewy Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookies
What You'll need:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon red food coloring
1/2 cup chocolate chips
What You'll do:
Preheat oven to 375.
Cream butter and sugars together until fluffy in the bowl of an
electric mixer. Add egg and vanilla and combine until smooth. Beat in
red food coloring. Stir in cocoa, flour, baking soda and salt until just
combined, scraping down the sides when needed. Fold in chocolate chips.
Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out 1-2 tablespoons of dough and set on baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
If you are really sore over the no-pictures thing, visit the original website. I would have copied and pasted them on here, but I have a fear of SOPA.

Why I bake- a lot
As an alcoholic in recovery, I had to find another outlet, another addiction if you will. I bake because it not only makes me happy to have created something, but it is always SO FULFILLING to give what I bake to other people, and make them happy. So none of the recipes on here include alcohol, and if I do make a recipe that calls for wine, I will substitute fruit juice.
And I am a big kid. I want to be a French teacher for pre-schoolers, so I feel it is important for me to keep thinking like a child. Also the whole child-like thinking helps me feel fulfilled in my daily life. Please leave comments if these recipes make you happy, I just love hearing that. I strive to keep the child inside me alive.
