Como fazer Red Velvet Cookies With Cream Cheese Frosting
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup buttermilk and 1 tablespoon red food coloring (gel food coloring recommended for vibrant color).
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Gently flatten each ball with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cookies cool, prepare the cream cheese frosting:
- In a medium bowl, beat together 4 ounces (1/2 cup) softened cream cheese, ½ cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons milk until smooth.
- Gradually add 3 cups powdered sugar, beating on low speed until light and fluffy.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, frost generously with the cream cheese frosting.
- For chocolate cream cheese frosting: Melt 2 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate and let it cool slightly. Add to the frosting mixture along with the butter and mix well.
