Red Velvet Cake Cookies

In a large bowl, combine oil, water, sugar, and vanilla and whisk vigorously for 1-2 minutes to fully combine.

Add vinegar and food coloring and whisk for another 30 seconds.

Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir and mix to combine so there are no traces of flour remaining.  

Using an ice cream scoop or two tablespoons, scoop cookie dough onto one or two plates so they are not touching.  You will get 10-15 cookies. The dough will seem wet, that's ok.

Freeze for 15 minutes.  Meanwhile put a heap of powdered sugar onto a shallow plate and set aside.  

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Remove cookies from the freezer and roll each ball with your hands briefly, then toss around in the powdered sugar covering the outside completely.

Place on two parchment covered baking sheets and bake for 12-15 minutes until just set in the middle.  Do not overbake, they will continue to harden as they cool.

When baked, cool on the baking pans for 10 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy!
