It's December already! The best month of the year! The weather is bipolar - one day it's hot, one day it's cold, somedays it's hot and cold within the same day, but it'll never snow. But the best part of all, is CHRISTMAS!

If you've been following me on Instagram, you would see that I've been getting in the holiday spirit! I'm almost done with decorating around the home and office so I can't wait to reveal that!

I have so many Christmas recipes pinned that I can't wait to try and today was the perfect day to try one of them.

I was feeling annoyed from my job and various monthly hormones so when I came home, I got busy in the kitchen making these!

I found the original recipe from Tablespoon, and loved that it was so simple. Even better, I got to use my Christmas baking pan!

I think Tablespoon said it best,

"Red velvet goodness topped with white chocolate can be yours in just 25 minutes."

Red Velvet Christmas White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

1/2 cup applesauce

1 cup packed light brown sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla

1 egg

2 teaspoons red gel or liquid food color (use 2 1/2 teaspoons if needed)

1 3/4 cups Original Bisquick™ mix or Aunt Jemima

1/4 cup unsweetened baking cocoa

1 cup white vanilla baking chips (add 1/2 cup more if desired)

DIRECTIONS

Heat oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with silicone baking mats or cooking parchment paper.
In large bowl, beat butter and brown sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla, egg and food color. Add Bisquick mix and baking cocoa; beat on low speed until combined. Stir in chips.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes, but no longer than 10 minutes (mine were perfect at 8 minutes). The cookies will look underdone, but this is what you want. Cool on cookie sheets 5 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.
