Red Velvet Gooey Butter Cookies #fbcookieswap

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Have you heard of the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap?  You haven’t?  This is the 3rd year for the cookie swap, and with 619 participants in 8 countries this year, we teamed up with Cookies for Kids Cancer and raised over $13,000. 

Each food blogger received 3 mystery names to send their cookies to – boy oh boy did I get some yummy cookies.  Plus it was so much fun getting 3 little packages filled with goodies.  Of course the best part was knowing that we were able to raise $13,000 to help children with cancer, and hopefully those funds will help to brighten their holidays!

With my crazy holiday schedule I selected a cookie I know is delicious and quick and easy to prepare.  Living in St. Louis, Missouri, home of the Gooey Butter Cake I opted to make Red Velvet Gooey Butter Cookies.  You might recall this past summer I made Gooey Butter Cookies with Coconut and Dark Chocolate Chips.  Both gooey and velvety, you just can’t beat them!  I thought the Red Velvet Gooey Butter Cookies would be perfect for the holidays since they’re red.

If you need to add more cookies to your party table, bring dessert to a party or going to a cookie swap, try these – everyone will love them.

  1. Combine cake mix, cream cheese, butter, egg and vanilla with an electric mixer.

  6. Remove from oven.  If desired sprinkle with more powdered sugar and serve.
