Red Velvet Cookies

The biggest difference between red velvet and regular chocolate is buttermilk.  It is the ingredient in these cake-mix cookies that give it a nice flavor.

Ingredients:
1 package Devil's Food Cake Mix
1/3 C buttermilk (you can use regular or almond milk and add a tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice)
4 Tbsp butter, melted
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup white chocolate chips
3 drops red food coloring (optional)



1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Place the cake mix, buttermilk, melted butter, egg and vanilla in a large mixing bowl and blend until combined.  Batter will be thick.  Add the food coloring, if using.
3.  Fold in chips until well distributed.
4.  Drop heaping teaspoons of the dough 2 inches apart on a cookie sheet.
5.  Bake until they have set, but are still a little soft in the center (10-12 minutes).  Repeat with remaining dough.
