The Cookie Buffet: White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

I totally dropped the ball on taking pictures of these while baking. Even though I make them all the time, this is the only picture I seem to have:

White chocolate macadamia nut cookies are one of those cookies that I make pretty often. It was the very first recipe I considered "mine" because I just threw it together one day, and it worked great.



Ingredients:
  • 2 1/2 C flour
  • 2 sticks of butter, softened
  • 1/2 C brown sugar
  • 1/2 C white sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 11 oz bag of white chocolate chips
  • 6.5 oz container of lightly salted macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 350F
  2. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy
  3. Add eggs one at a time, and mix until well combined
  4. Add the vanilla and mix
  5. Add the flour, baking soda and salt, and mix until just combined
  6. Add the chips and nuts, and combine on low until just combined
  7. Scoop with a #60 scoop onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet, and bake for 9-11 minutes until edges start to turn golden brown.
  8. Cool on sheet 2 minutes, and then transfer to racks.
