Recipe: White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies


I have been staying indoors a lot lately.  There are multiple reasons why, and they are all tedious and only yawn worthy, so I won't bore you with the details.  However, the benefit of staying indoors is I get a hankering for baked goods.

One of the delicious goodies recently whipped up in my kitchen are these beauties... White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies.  They were so good; they didn't last long.  So, I thought I would share the recipe with all of you...

White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

1 cup butter
1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
12 oz. white chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups chopped macadamia nuts

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

Cream together butter and sugars until you have a fluffy paste.  Add the eggs and vanilla to the mixture and mix until fully incorporated.  Blend in flour, baking soda, and salt.  Once all combined, mix in the white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts into the batter until everything is fully incorporated.  Next, you will drop a teaspoonful of the battery onto an ungreased cookie sheet (preferably on parchment paper).  Bake for 10-12 minutes.  Makes approximately 2 1/2 dozen cookies.

If you try to recipe, come back here and let me know how it turned out.  These beauties are definitely a luxury on the old diet, but they are so worth it.

Happy Monday!
