Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened

- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
For the Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a blender, combine the softened butter and sugar. Blend until creamy and smooth. Add the egg, vanilla extract, red food coloring, and buttermilk. Blend until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the blender and pulse until a dough forms. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure even mixing.
- Grease your baking sheet or use a silicone baking mat. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the Cream Cheese Frosting Filling
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together using a hand mixer (or blend in the blender for convenience) until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until fluffy and well combined.
- Spread or pipe a generous layer of cream cheese filling onto the flat side of one cookie.
- Top with another cookie, flat side down, to create a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling.
- Chill the assembled sandwich cookies in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes to set the filling before serving.
Red Velvet Peanut Butter Cookies
If you love the combination of sweet and salty, these Red Velvet Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies are your perfect match. The cocoa-infused red velvet cookie base pairs amazingly with the creamy, nutty flavor of a peanut butter cup or Hershey’s Kisses.
These cookies are incredibly easy to make, thanks to the Blendtec blender simplifying the dough prep. The best part of this recipe is adding the peanut butter cup or Hershey’s Kiss immediately after baking gives these cookies their signature blossom look.
This allows the chocolate to melt a little bit, enhancing every bite. Serve them with hot chocolate for a cozy, satisfying treat. These cookies will steal the heart of any peanut butter lover at your next holiday party or gathering with family and friends.
Pro Tip: To ensure your peanut butter cups or Hershey’s Kisses don’t melt too much when placed on top of the cookies that are still hot from the oven, freeze them for 15-20 minutes before baking. This will help them hold their shape while softening and melting just enough for that perfect texture.
