These Red Velvet Cookies with three kinds of chocolate chips will be a favorite Valentine’s Day treat this year.
A couple months ago I made these Chocolate Mint Cookies. I had to give them away, or I would have eaten the entire batch of cookies before the day was over. They were that good!
Have you tried the cake mix cookies yet? They are one of my favorite go-to cookies at the moment.
I love quick and easy they are to mix up and bake. You could bake them right away, but I like to let the dough chill in my refrigerator for about 30 minutes. It helps the dough from spreading out too thin. And DO NOT bake them more than 9 minutes. They will look very undone, but they will set up quickly.
My favorite way to eat them is fresh out of the oven. The center is still so gooey and soft and just perfect. Plus the chocolate is so melty and delicious.
I wanted to make some of these Red Velvet Cookies with a Valentine’s flair for this month. When I was shopping at Walmart I found the Nestle Valentine’s mix of chocolate chips. Every bite of these cookies has a good amount of chocolate in it.
The best thing about these cookies is that they stay soft for about 5 days. I’m sure they would stay soft longer, but cookies just don’t last long enough in our house for me to test that theory.
I hope you like red and pink Valentine’s Day treats because I kind of went overboard this year and baked quite a few. So get prepared for a new one every day and maybe even one after the heart day is over.

I am surprised these cookies even lasted five days! They wouldn’t last two minutes in my house.

They don’t usually last that long, but I bagged them up for lunches and the kids know they can’t eat those whenever they want!
You don’t need to twist my arm to get me to love red velvet these days! And the triple chips just take them to a whole new level.
Cake mix cookies are underrated – they so convenient! And taste so good!

I just love the convenience of a cake mix cookie…and they taste like you spent hours on them! Any thing with triple chips is a winner by me!

Thank you Ashley! The cake mix cookies are quickly becoming my favorite cookie to make too!!!
I love the combination of dark and white chocolate chips (and the pretty red ones) here because it fits so well with what red velvet is–is it chocolate? Is it vanilla? Who knows, it’s RED!

I’m pretty sure these would not last 5 days in my house. And yes, warm out of the oven all cookies are the best!
