Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies are incredibly quick and easy to make and taste delicious. These cookies start with a cake box and end as a special treat perfect for sharing with friends.
My daughter loves red velvet anything, cakes, cookies, fudge, brownies, if it comes in red velvet she loves it.
I am not sure that I ever had red velvet until I was grown and married and I’m not even sure what it was, probably cake.
We LOVE to make cake mix cookies at our house because they are simple and easy and delicious. They are definitely something that the kids can whip together on their own.
Adding the striped kisses to the tops of the cookies while they are hot is a nice added touch. A super easy way to dress up your cookies.
Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies
All you need is this… striped hershey’s kisses, red velvet cake mix, 1/3 cup melted butter, 2 large eggs.
Mix all ingredients together…
Shape the dough into balls, place on a cookie sheet… bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes…
Reader’s Tip: One of our fabulous readers suggested that you rub melted butter on your hands to make it easier to form the balls.
While the red velvet cake mix cookies are baking, unwrap enough hershey’s kisses to have one for each cookie…
When the cookies are done, remove them from the oven…
Immediately place one hershey’s kiss in the middle of all the cookies, gently press down…

Wish you could post pics here… but I made these using 1/3 cup melted butter (the article itself says ¼, but the recipe says 1/3… not sure which is correct!). Dough is sticky, but I just rubbed melted butter on my hands and that made it easy to make the balls. I did this with red velvet cake mix as well as white vanilla and strawberry cake mix… they came out beautiful and perfect for Valentine’s Day!
Thanks Kim! I updated the post to say 1/3 cup melted butter… thanks for catching that mistake. I also added your tip to the post.
I’m giving this recipe all 5 stars because my kids are going to love it. I’m tweeting it right away.
Red velvet cake mix cookies with Hersy kiss . The cooky ? dough was sticky and to wet to make into balls A big flop
Rub butter on all over your hands before handling the dough… game changer.
What a great suggestion. Thanks Kim!
