It’s cold out, so my mind is already on Christmas baking! M&M Red Velvet Cake Cookies will do the trick!
I’ve been blogging consistently for over a year now…and I still haven’t really conquered baking. When I started The Cookie Rookie, I couldn’t cook, anything. As in —> I couldn’t make instant coffee. My cooking skills were about as developed as my directional skills…and let’s just say I still have to use my GPS when I go to my brothers house…weekly. I have made a lot of progress…but I haven’t really attempted much baking. This year is going to be my year to learn! I have a bread recipe coming up (WHHHAT?) as well as some homemade cookies. But today? Today I’m making cake mix cookies. Yep. Cookies made from cake mix.
M&M Red Velvet Cake Cookies.
Baby steps. Don’t judge.
I don’t think these are the most beautiful things I’ve ever made…I’m still learning after all! But they were super tasty. And SUPER easy. And we all know my attachment to my easy recipes. I’ll work on beautifying my next batch. I have a feeling there will be many many many more batches!
What are your favorite easy baking recipes for Christmas?! I’d love to hear them! Hint hint…there’s a roundup of just that coming your way soon! So sit back, have a cookie, and get ready for the holidays. They’re here!
Enjoy!

I LOVE red velvet anything & baking (not cooking, leave that to my other half). Definately making these very soon. As I have a physical disability that prevents me from standing longer than 5 minutes sothese are perfect! I will be sharing this site with my friends because they are son easy!
Keep up your awesome work,
Leone

Hi Beck, How is the other Becky Hardin doing? Sure would love to see the two of you. I copied your recipe of the red velvet cookies to make for a cookie exchange. I love red velvet anything baked. I’ll let you know how they turn out. I’ve been cooking for over forty years and I still depend heavily on cookbooks and others to guide me. I think you have done a wonderful job.
Aw I’m so glad you stopped by!! Thanks so much, that means a lot!
How festive are these cookies? My little Lola Mae would love to help make these. Pinning :)

These look delicious, Bec!! …not so baby-steppish if you ask me:-)
Thanks mom :) One day I’ll be making cookies like you though!
