Christmas break has been such a time of relaxation and rejuvenation. Truly, whenever I come home from college, I crash. Then, I just strive to enjoy the simple things. Like baking.
Today I tried a recipe from my favorite Blogging Baker - Sally from Sally's Baking Addiction. These are her Red Velvet Cookies. Truly such an easy recipe to follow and work with.
Now those of you who know me, I know what you are thinking - "why did Alyssa make a chocolate dessert when she does not even like chocolate?". Well it is essentially a win win. I get the joy of baking, just without the calories part.
Tips for the recipe:
Do not underestimate the thickness of the dough. It was definitely hard for me to thoroughly mix everything.
Use an ice scream scoop to get the dough. It is extremely hard after chilling for an hour.
Definitely use parchment paper to ensure the cookies stay soft.
Make sure your egg is room temperature. Just do it.
Overall, awesome recipe to try. Plus the color is fantastic. I am off to watch ARGO with my family. Have any great baking recipes you have tried recently? I am looking for something to bake for New Years Eve!
