White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies!
I think white chocolate is good in
just about anything sweet, but when you pair it with macadamia nuts it just
makes it extra special. These cookies are so easy to make and the flavor
is just wonderful. They are soft and chewy and stay that way if you
don't over bake them and store them in an airtight container. Here
is what you need for these:
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 cup macadamia nuts, crushed
12 oz. bag of white chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cream butter and sugars together until light and fluffy.
Beat in eggs and vanilla. Combine flour, soda, salt and baking powder in
another bowl. Gradually add to the butter mixture, mixing after
each addition.
Stir in the nuts and white chocolate
chips. Drop on ungreased cookie sheets and bake for approximately
9-10 minutes. Don't over bake them if you like them soft and
chewy. Allow to cool slightly before removing from the cookie sheet.
For the best results when making home made cookies, use a good heavy cookie sheet, not a
thin flimsy one. The thin cookie sheets burn the bottom of the cookies
and they don't rise as much.
