Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter

• 1/2 cup brown sugar

• 1/3 cup sugar

• 1 egg

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1 teaspoon red food coloring gel

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder

• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 1 cup chopped Oreos

• 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

What's the Deal with Brown Butter?

Brown butter is like regular butter's cool cousin. We heat it until it gets this awesome nutty vibe. It's the secret weapon that makes these cookies next-level amazing.

Let's Talk Red Velvet:

Imagine a bit of cocoa goodness meets a stunning red color – that's red velvet. It's like the rockstar of desserts, and it's bringing all the romance to our cookies.

Why Whip These Up for Valentine's Day?

1. Dazzling Red Color: Because nothing says love like a batch of vibrant red cookies.

2. Flavor Explosion: Brown butter, Oreos, and chocolate chips – need I say more?

3. Heartfelt Gesture: Handmade treats are like a love note in cookie form, and who doesn't love that?

How to Make Brown Butter:

Creating brown butter is a simple yet transformative process. Follow these steps to achieve that beautiful golden-brown elixir:

1. Melt the Butter: Start by melting unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium to low heat.

2. Continuous Stirring: Stir the butter continuously to ensure even browning and prevent burning. This takes about 5-10 minutes.

3. Watch for Color and Aroma: Keep a close eye on the butter. Once it turns a golden-brown color and releases a nutty aroma, it's ready.

4. Cooling Down: Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the brown butter to cool for about 10 minutes before incorporating it into your recipe.

Recipe:

1. Brown Butter Base:

   Get that butter browned up (easy peasy instructions above), mix in sugar, an egg, vanilla, and a dash of red food coloring.

2. Whisk the Dry Stuff:

   In another bowl, mix flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Fold that goodness into your wet mix.

3. Add the Goodies:

   Toss in chopped Oreos and chocolate chips – the more, the merrier!

4. Chill and Bake:

   Let the dough chill for 30 minutes, then scoop and bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes.

5. Spread the Love:

   Share these Red Velvet Oreo Cookies with your favorite people, and watch the smiles roll in.

Get ready for a love-infused baking adventure with these cookies – it's red velvet meets brown butter in a cookie wonderland. Happy Valentine's Day, baking buddies! 💖🍪 #ValentinesDayTreats #RedVelvetMagic #BrownButterAdventure
