Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 g unsalted butter (softened)
- 150 g light brown sugar (packed)
- 50 g granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 190 g all-purpose flour
- 0.5 tsp baking soda
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 150 g white chocolate chips
- 100 g macadamia nuts (roughly chopped)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until well blended.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough (about 1.5 tablespoons per cookie) and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look slightly underbaked.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy these delicious white chocolate macadamia nut cookies! Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
