The only thing better than a big piece of red velvet cake is a red velvet cookie! These soft, chewy red velvet crinkle cookies are a fun spin on this iconic cake flavor.

The fact that they’re rolled in sugar before being baked to perfection is just an added bonus

Making Sure Your Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies Are Soft & Fluffy

While I love getting caught up in the way my desserts look, it’s super important that my recipes are just as delicious.

但是，即使您拥有最好的红色天鹅绒皱纹曲奇食谱，但其中的大部分归结为制作饼干。

要记住的第一件事是测量适量的面粉。一些家庭面包师倾向于将面粉包装到量杯中。

Unfortunately, this can cause a person to add a lot more flour to a recipe than it calls for.

I like to use a厨房秤准确地说，但是您也可以用勺子将面粉弄脏在包里，然后将勺子加入量子杯中，然后用刀将其放下。

The other important thing to keep in mind is to not over-mix the dough!

It’s ok to mix the butter and sugar on high, but once the flour is added you want to mix the dough just until it’s incorporated on a low speed. This will yield fluffy, soft cookies.

If you overwork your dough after the flour has been added, strong gluten strands will form, and your cookies can turn out dense and tough.

Crinkle Cookie Recipe Substitutions and Swaps

While I love this recipe just the way it is, I know some of you might have food allergies or not have all these ingredients on hand.

If you find yourself in either of these situations, I share some swaps and variations that can be made below.

• All-purpose flour– This recipe works best with all-purpose flour, but you can use a gluten free flour blend if needed. I recommend using a GF flour blend likethis。
• 未加糖的可可粉- 我更喜欢使用常规的烘焙可可，但是您也可以在此食谱中使用荷兰加工的可可。
• Unsalted Butter– If you only have salted butter on hand, you can use it in place of the salted butter and omit the salt in this recipe. You can also use vegan butter in its place!
• Granulated Sugar- 在此食谱中，砂糖和红糖的平衡产生了柔软，耐嚼的曲奇。我不建议改变糖的比例。
• Brown Sugar– You can use light or dark brown sugar in this recipe! I prefer using dark brown sugar because it deepens the hue of the cookies and adds extra flavor.
• 1个大鸡蛋– If you have an egg allergy you can try using a flaxseed egg or apowdered egg replacer。
• Vanilla Extract- 香草是这种食谱有助于提升这些饼干中的其他口味。我建议使用good quality vanilla extractfor best results. If you don’t have any on hand, you omit this ingredient.
• Red Gel Food Coloring– I highly recommend using凝胶食用色素to color these red velvet cookies. It creates a beautiful deep shade without throwing off the consistency of the dough the way liquid food coloring can. I usually order my gel food coloring online and love both the Americolor and Chef Master’s brands. If you’re really in a pinch you can use liquid food coloring, but I recommend adding an additional Tbsp of flour to offset the extra moisture.
• 糖粉– The powdered sugar is essential in this recipe to highlight those beautiful crinkles! Sadly, there isn’t really an alternative for this ingredient.

Tips for Making the Best Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies

• Make sure your brown sugar is soft! If it’s hard or chunky it will be extremely hard to mix into this cookie dough. If your brown sugar is hard, try softening it withthese tips。
• Reallycream together the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar直到混合物变浅。这有助于将空气融入面团中，从而制成柔软耐嚼的饼干。
• 不要过度劳累的饼干面团呢添加面粉后，以缓慢的速度混合，直到合并干成分为止。
• Use acookie scoopto ensure your cookies are uniformly sized.
• Flatten your cookie dough balls out to a consistent thickness of about 3/4 inch。If some are thicker or thinner than others, they may over or under bake in the oven.
• 将饼干卷成糖粉和砂糖的混合物。这有助于糖粘在饼干上，并防止糖粉溶解。

• 确保饼干有浓稠的糖涂层and bake them right after they’re dunked in the sugar mixture.
• 烤托盘上的饼干顶部撒上些额外的糖粉混合物。Sometimes the cookies can absorb the powdered sugar as they sit and adding a little extra right before baking the cookies helps counteract that.
• Don’t over bake your cookies。在涂上饼干的一面，请记住，饼干在冷却时继续烘烤一点。这将确保您的饼干具有柔软的耐嚼中心！

Making These Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies in Advance & Storage Tips

你可以将这些饼干存放在密封的容器中，在室温下最多7天。你可以also store them in a Ziploc bag.

Scooped cookie dough balls can be frozen for up to a monthif wrapped in plastic wrap and stored in an airtight container.

I like to move the cookie dough to the fridge the night before I plan to bake the cookies. I also wait to roll them in the sugar mixture until right before they’re baked.

Baked red velvet crinkle cookies can also be frozen。如果在密封的容器中冻结，这些饼干持续长达一个月。

唯一的缺点是，一些糖粉会随着解冻而溶解，因此看起来不会那么漂亮！
