These Macadamia Chocolate Chip Cookies are the perfect fusion of rich, creamy white chocolate, roasted macadamia nuts, and gooey semi-sweet chips baked into a buttery, chewy cookie. Sweet with a salty crunch — and they stay soft for days!
🧈 Ingredients (Makes about 24 cookies)
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup roasted macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
👨🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Cream the Butter and Sugars:
🧈 In a large bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy — about 2–3 minutes with a hand mixer.
2️⃣ Add Eggs and Vanilla:
🥚 Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
3️⃣ Combine Dry Ingredients:
🥣 In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into wet ingredients until just combined.
4️⃣ Add the Good Stuff:
🍫 Fold in white and semi-sweet chocolate chips along with chopped macadamia nuts.
5️⃣ Chill the Dough (Optional but Recommended):
❄️ Cover and chill the dough for at least 30 minutes to prevent spreading.
6️⃣ Bake the Cookies:
🔥 Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough 2 inches apart.
⏱ Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden. Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
