Oh wow! I cannot wait to make this recipe tommorrow! Il have to brave the crazy wind and rain here in Scotland to get some powdered sugar from the shop but im pretty sure its going to be worth the resultant frizztastic hair! Ive never had red velvet cookies or black and white cookies (never heard of them until today to be honest!) but they sound right up my street! I made your lovely Red Velvet cupcakes for a friends birthday last week and they went down really well ( a bit too well, I never got to taste one :/ ) however I made them with my grans depression era buttercream frosting which I flavoured with cinnamon. A-m-a-z-i-n-g!
Thanks soo much for all these lovely recipes Joy!

Joyyyy. Can I tell you a story? A story of a girl who managed to get to a ripe old age without ever having tried red velvet, in any shape or form. And then she made these on New Year’s Eve. And already her New Year’s resolution is shot.

These are one of the best cookies I have ever made or tasted. And this is from a girl who does not really like cookies, seriously. I’m pretty sure the only cookies I really had this whole year were Fig Newtons. A couple of things- I’m not sure how, but I accidentally used 1 ts of vanilla in the vanilla glaze and can I just say as a general warning to everyone- whatever you do, make sure that does not happen. The extra vanilla( I used real too!) totally ruined the glaze and made it taste almost sickly medicinal. I freaked out for a second but then was saved by cream cheese- I used about 1 1/2 TB of cream cheeses, added a TB of the vanilla glaze, and about 2 TB of whipping cream and voila, a perfectly lovely white frosting that was fantastic on the cookies. The cream cheese+ red velvet combo was a match made in heaven, and along with the chocolate ganache topping, the cookie overall didn’t become painfully sweet and was just, in a word, perfect. My family did like it better cut into small squares after refrigerating- and it also stops me from swallowing a whole cookie at a time:)

What a fantastic foray into red velvet— can’t wait to try your cupcake/ cake recipes!

I’ve made Red Velvet cupcakes a couple times but I can never seem to get them to be red at all. I’ve gone through entire bottles of red food coloring and it’s never red…not anything close to your delicious looking cookies. Perhaps it is time to try again with this recipe instead.

I don’t know you. I’ve never met you. I’ve never tried your baked goods. But after seeing the pictures of these red velvet black and white cookies I’m pretty sure you are a genius. I keep getting goosebumps looking at them. If I walked into work with these I am pretty sure I would be mauled by the women in my office. Wow. Just wow.

I saw these and decided to try them – when I looked in the oven, I had to laugh. They were the equivalent of dark pink pancakes! They didn’t taste to bad, though, and I still love your blog. :)

I have just met you, and I love you.

I just stumbled upon this gem of awesomeness by recommendation of a friend. She said I remind her of you… or you remind her of me… ANYWAY. I saw this recipe and almost fell over because a) my love of red velvet runs deeper than most human relationships b) my love of black and white cookies is a close second to the love of red velvet. awesome. definitely a new loyal reader! : )
