Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons red food coloring
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- Cream cheese icing, for decorating (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in the food coloring, vanilla, and cocoa powder until combined.
With the mixer on low, gradually add the dry ingredients and beat until just combined. Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Decorate with cream cheese icing, if desired. Enjoy!
