These homemade red velvet cookies are chocolatey, chewy, and intensely red! Mixed with white chocolate chips, semi-sweet chips, and blue M&Ms, these delicious cookies are the perfect addition to your 4th of July party!Now, my family has always been big on holidays. We are BIG fans of Christmas, Thanksgiving (all of the glorious food–how could you not?!), and Easter. We love not just what each holiday represents, but also that we can share the holiday together as a family.

Usually when we all get together, someone (*cough* my brother *cough*) suggests we pull out our family videos. It was during one of those times my family realizes just how much we loved the 4th.

We stumbled across a recording from the mid-90s we hadn’t seen in years, that detailed my brother, sister, and I all performing patriotic songs, poems, and reciting the pledge of allegiance. Apparently 4th grade was a big year in US History for my brother, and unfortunately for us, we have it all on tape.

Like, wow.

There was a whole lot of embarrassment going on in that video.

Our 4th of July’s definitely don’t look like that anymore (although with my niece and nephew getting older, who knows??). Instead, they look a whole lot like barbecues, Berry Vanilla Naked Cakes, Peach Raspberry Lemonades, and these festive Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookies.

These homemade red velvet cookies are chocolatey, chewy, and intensely red! Mixed with white chocolate chips, semi-sweet chips, and blue M&Ms, these delicious cookies are the perfect addition to your 4th of July party!These Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookies are chewy yet soft, and incredibly rich and chocolatey.

I used my go to chocolate chip cookie recipe, but I just added a few extra ingredients to give these cookies that classic red velvet flavor.

The addition of red, white, and blue M&Ms gives these cookies that extra Independence Day look, but you could definitely omit them and just use chocolate chips.

Worth every single calorie.
