Sweets for your sweet!

These red velvet cookies are lightened up with a few simple swaps and are actually pretty easy to make! They start out with a rather traditional red velvet cookie and are then filled in the center with an easy-peasy white chocolate fudge.

They’re super festive right now and would be perfect for any Valentine’s Day party, get-together, or to give as a sweet treat to friends and family on the day of looove.

Lightening these bad boys up was pretty simple. Light butter, sugar swapped out for sweetener, and that’s just a bout it. If you really wanted to continue on, I’m sure that you could swap out the condensed milk for a fat-free version.

The fudge in the middle does solidify enough to package and travel well enough, but still has a little bit of give to it, just like any good ‘fudge’ should.

If you love red velvet, you’re going to love these cookies, and that’s the bottom line. While these cookies are perfect Valentine’, they would also be great around Christmas and New Year’s. Or just whenever you feel like having some red velvet cookies!
