Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 20m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup butter or 1 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 (11 ounce) package white chocolate chips
1 cup macadamia nuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Cream the butter and add the sugars.
  • Beat in the vanilla extract and eggs.
  • Add dry ingredients; mix well.
  • Add in white chocolate chips and nuts.
  • Combine mixture until well blended.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop (or two tablespoonfuls batter) drop on ungreased baking sheet.
  • They are large, so you may need to flatten a little before baking.
  • Bake for 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality white chocolate. The quality of the white chocolate you use will greatly affect the taste of your cookies. Look for a white chocolate that is made with real cocoa butter and has a smooth, creamy texture.
  • Toast the macadamia nuts to enhance their flavor. Toasting the macadamia nuts before adding them to the cookies will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.

Conclusion:

These white chocolate macadamia nut cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like your cookies chewy or crispy, these cookies are sure to please. So next time you are looking for a sweet snack, give these white chocolate macadamia nut cookies a try.
