Love the combo of red velvet and vanilla cookies. So festive and looks delicious as well.
Jaren, these look so perfect! I love so many Christmas movies, but Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story and Elf and the top 3 🙂
I’m all over these cookies, Jaren! I love everything you mentioned about this time of year. It’s the little things that make it all so special. And I LOVE The Family Man! I actually watched that movie for the first time last year and just loved it so much. I don’t know why I hadn’t seen it before. My favorite Christmas movies are The Santa Clause (the first one!) and Love Actually!
My kids LOVE The Santa Clause movies! Thanks Ashlyn!

Thank you!
Love all the Christmas movies and watch as many as possible!
Trying these tonight with my daughter and her friends! Omgosh, I love The Family Man- so many people have not heard of it before!!! Thanks for the recipe.
Does this recipe take into account, the shrinking size of cake mixes? Most are only 13.5 ounces now. Wondering if the other ingredients are correct for the shrinking mix?
Thank you! I would like to make these as soon as I get a red velvet mix.
Hi Martha! Sorry for the delay! It still works fine!
