These Stuffed Red Velvet Cookies are similar to a Whoopie cookie. A cake mix helps make the quick and easy!
Welcome! This is Diane from Recipes for our Daily Bread. I look forward to sharing my easy recipes with Princess Pinky Girl followers every month. If you plan to bake any cookies this Christmas and need an easy, delicious cookie recipe, you will love these Stuffed Red Velvet Cookies.
What ingredients do you need to make these Red Velvet cookies?
A simple Red Velvet cake mix is used for the cookie. Have you ever made cookies from a box of cake mix? Cake mix cookies are soft and chewy and super delicious (check out Princess Pinky Girls Cake Mix Cookies – great for any occasion)! Plus, they only require three ingredients to make the cookies including cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. To kick up these delicious Red Velvet cake mix cookies, I stuffed them with a fantastic cream cheese filling. The stuffing is made from cream cheese, marshmallow creme, confectioners’ sugar, butter and a little shortening.
We make these cookies often at my house. I use different cakes mixes and even color the filling for various times of the year. You can see my Devil’s Food Stuffed Cookies here. Whip up these Devil’s Food Stuffed Cookies at the last-minute and impress everyone. Because these cookies are red and white, they are perfect for the holidays. If you need cookies for a Cookie Swap or your children’s class, kids will love these cookies are stuffed. They have not one but two cookies sandwich together with the fantastic creamy filling.
INGREDIENTS:
Two boxes Duncan Hines Red Velvet Cake Mix
1 cup vegetable oil
Four eggs, beaten
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COOKIE:
Mix all the ingredients together using an electric mixer.
I use a small ice cream scoop, 1 TB size to scoop the cookies on a baking sheet. Because of putting two cookies together, I prefer using the smaller scoop.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
FILLING:
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 2 cups marshmallow creme
- ½ cup butter softened
- ½ cup shortening
- 3 -1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Use an electric mixer and beat the marshmallow creme, butter, shortening, and cream cheese until fluffy.
- Slowly add the confectioners’ sugar. vanilla
- Add the vanilla.
- Spread the filling on the bottoms of half of the cookies.
- Top each with another cookie.
Every year, these cookies are in DEMAND! Christmas isn’t Christmas unit we bake several batches and pass them out to friends and neighbors. The first batch is always gone before the second batch is done! We’ve even done these with gluten free cake mix and dairy free cream cheese for my friends with allergies.
I bet these cookies were just incredible!!! Everything you make looks so perfect! Red Velvet is an addiction! hahah
I am a little confused about how to make red velvet cookies from devil’s food cake mix. Did you mean red velvet cake mix?
OMGosh – I cannot believe you are the first to notice it! Yes, it should read RED VELVET – changed and THANK YOU!!!
These look absolutely divine. Have you ever tried adding more brown sugar to make the cookies a bit more dense? I love red velvet cake, but I prefer my cookies to have a bit more crunch. Might just have to give it a try. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I also love baking.
Your recipe was great.
Thanks for share.
