Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 Tablespoon red food coloring
  • 4 ounces white chocolate melts
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil

Instructions
 

  • Add flour, sugar, cocoa, and salt to a bowl of a food processor. Pulse. (I got this little one from Sur la Table and I love it. It is the perfect size - 7 cups, and I use it almost every day.)
  • Add butter and food coloring. Pulse until the dough looks like crumbs.
  • Run until it forms a ball.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board.
  • Roll out and cut with a small round cookie cutter.
  • Bake in a preheated 325-degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the centers are set. Transfer to a rack and cool completely.
  • Melt the white chocolate melts according to package directions.
  • Add oil and mix until combined.
  • Drizzle chocolate over cookies. Let stand until set.
