1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Whip together the butter and sugar for ~2 minutes; mix in the egg, food coloring, vanilla and sour cream.
3. Mix in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt; spoon out 1" cookie dough balls and place on a cookie sheet 2" apart (so they have room to expand).
4. Bake for 15-17 minutes and then let cool completely.
