How to cook deliciously - Red Velvet Cookies

1. Stage

Melt the unsweetened chocolate in a microwave. Stir the chocolate until it's smooth. Let cool.

2. Stage

Cream the butter and both sugars for 5 to 7 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the egg, food coloring and vanilla and blend those into the mixture. Add in the cooled chocolate and beat the mixture to blend it all together. Mix the flour, baking soda and salt in another bowl. Add some of the dry mix to the wet mix and blend; then add some of the sour cream to the wet mix and blend. Keep alternating additions, beating to blend after each one. Mix in the chocolate chips.

3. Stage

Drop a tablespoon full of batter onto a baking sheet that's lined with parchment paper. Keep adding tablespoons of dough, with 2 inches of space in between each one. Bake the cookies at 375°F for 6 to 9 minutes until set. Place the cookies on wire racks to cool down completely. Spread frosting on the cookies, and add sprinkles if you'd like.
