Tips & Tricks (5)

Chill for Crinkle Perfection 🧊
Refrigerate the cookie dough for at least 1 hour before rolling to prevent spreading and create those signature crinkle cracks.
Powdered Sugar Technique 🍬
Use a fine mesh sieve to evenly coat cookies with powdered sugar, ensuring a professional-looking, consistent finish with no clumps.
Cake Mix Flavor Boost 🍰
Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon of cream cheese flavoring to enhance the red velvet flavor beyond the basic cake mix.
Uniform Cookie Size 📏
Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to ensure consistent cookie sizes, which guarantees even baking and a professional appearance.
Cooling Rack Magic 🍪
Transfer cookies to a wire cooling rack immediately after baking to prevent continued cooking on the hot baking sheet and maintain the perfect soft texture.
