White Chocolate Macadamia Cookie Recipe

This White Chocolate Macadamia Cookie Recipe is the same one that I used to show my husband how much I loved him and cared for his needs and wants so many years ago. Like I have told you on the Miss Mary Page, It really is just the Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe modified a little. He is content to think of it as our own "Special Recipe"; and hey little fibs are what keeps a marriage strong. I have difficulty finding unsalted macadamia nuts, so I have reduced the salt a bit to compensate for that; and I have altered the mixing method to one that works really well for me. Whenever I need to butter him up a bit, I pull out our own White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookie Recipe and bake him a batch of heaven.




2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

1 cup butter, softened

3/4 cup white granulated sugar

3/4 cup packed light brown sugar

1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

2 large eggs

1 package (12 oz) white chocolate chips

1 cup coarsely chopped macadamia nuts





Preheat oven to 350º F. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt in a 1 gallon Ziploc bag. Seal the bag and shake it well to thoroughly mix all dry ingredients; set aside. With an cream butter and the two sugars until light and creamy. Don't rush this, it should take between 5 and 8 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the pure vanilla extract.

With the on it's lowest setting, slowly add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and beat only until combined; you will need to scrape down the sides of the bowl a few times. Fold in the white chocolate chips and the chopped macadamia nuts.

Spoon batter into the 1 gallon ziploc that held the flour and refrigerate until the dough firms up enough to handle with a cookie scoop. Scoop dough onto parchment lined baking sheets and bake for approximately 9-11 minutes or until golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes and then transfer them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
