Red Velvet Gooey Butter Cookies #fbcookieswap
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.
