Red Velvet White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients
1 stick unsalted butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup cocoa powder
Red food coloring
1 cup white chocolate chips

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Line two baking sheets with parchment paper
2. Cream the butter and sugars until combined.  The batter will be a little crumbly
3. Add in the eggs and vanilla, mixing until combined
4. Mix in the flour, baking soda, and cocoa powder on low speed.  Batter will become sticky
5. Add in the food coloring until you reach your desired color
6. Fold in the chocolate chips
7. Drop 1 inch balls onto your cookie sheet.  I used my hands to shape the dough, but you can use a tablespoon or cookie dough scoop
8. Bake cookies until crisp around the edges, about 8-12 minutes
9. Cool on sheet for 10 minutes.  Remove to rack to cool completely
