I am sharing these Cranberry and White Chocolate Pink Velvet Cookies! They are so easy to make with a cake mix as a base and just an easy mix in of the cranberries and white chocolate. I actually added macadamia nuts too, but to be honest, I don’t think they added much to the cookie, so I would leave them out next time and I didn’t include them in my recipe here. I use this same cake mix base for a lot of my cookies recipes and it never lets me down. I have said it many times, and while i know that from scratch cookies are often the best, nothing beats the texture of a cake mix cookie. The mix also makes it so easy to make these with kids.

promised my daughter pink cookies last week and I had planned to just add pink food coloring to a vanilla cake mix. When I saw the pink velvet cake mix in the store, I knew it would be perfect! The flavor is very subtle and lets the tangy cranberries really shine through.
