Red Velvet Cheesecake Cookies

[elizabeth.okane]

I stole this recipe from Culinary Couture and it is fabulous! I made them last night and everyone loved them. The only thing I wish to do next time is to make the cream cheese balls larger. The red velvet was so overpowering that it was difficult to taste the "cheesecake".

Ingredients:
For the cookies
1 box red velvet cake mix (I used Duncan Hines)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1/2 cup canola oil
pinch of vanilla powder

For the cheesecake filling
4 oz cream cheese, at room temperature (I used 1/3 less fat cream cheese and only took it out 10 minutes beforehand)
2 cups powdered sugar
pinch of vanilla powder

For the white chocolate drizzle
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips, melted (If you don't have white chocolate chips, or if you have an issue with melting them, you can simply drizzle some melted vanilla frosting, it's just as delicious)

For the Directions, go to Culinary Couture: Culinary Couture: Red Velvet Cheesecake Cookies

I also have detailed pictures on my blog - thecaliforniacountryside.com.

Happy Baking!

XOXO
