I shared these yummy Red Velvet Cookies a few years ago and received a lot of feedback from folks who had tried the recipe and loved it.  As we gear up for Valentines Day, I encourage you to give these a try! They are pretty and so delicious!  Just look at the ingredients….you can’t lose! You can thank me later!

    • Bake for 10-12 minutes.
    • Cool.
    •  

Cream Cheese Filling

1 8 oz. Package cream cheese, softened to room temperature

Recipe amended slightly from this one at allhomemadecookies.com
 
 
Tip: For consistent size cookies, use a 1.5 inch small ice cream scooper when placing batter on the baking sheet.
The finished cookie size will be about 3 inches wide.
 
 
 
To assemble, spoon a small amount of frosting on the flat side of one cookie. Take another cookie and press together until frosting is flush with the edge.
 
 
 
And ENJOY, of course!
