INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup
unsalted butter, very soft
8 oz
cream cheese, brick-style (must use full-fat cream cheese; not lite, whipped, spreadable, etc.)
1
large egg
2 tsp
vanilla extract
1
box red velvet cake mix, sifted (don’t skip sifting or you’ll have lumps that won’t incorporate; if the brand of cake mix you use is slightly larger, that’s fine, but smaller is not okay or the dough will be too wet)
12
-ounces (1 bag) semi-sweet chocolate chips
