Delicious and festive gluten-free red velvet cookie sandwiches filled with cream cheese frosting.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for frosting)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix the vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
  5. Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  8. Once the cookies are cool, spread a generous amount of cream cheese frosting on the flat side of one cookie and sandwich it with another cookie.
  9. Repeat with the remaining cookies and frosting.
