Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup white sugar
1 cup salted butter, softened
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, blend the light brown sugar and white sugar on medium speed. Add the softened butter and continue mixing until the mixture forms a grainy paste. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture, beating at medium speed until the ingredients are fully combined and smooth.
Gradually add the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the chopped macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and drop them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Be sure to check around the 10-minute mark to avoid over-baking.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serving Tips:

These cookies are perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a family gathering, a party, or just a cozy snack with a cup of tea or coffee.
Serve them fresh out of the oven for a warm, gooey treat, or allow them to cool for a crispy bite.
For an extra indulgent treat, you can pair them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or drizzle some caramel sauce on top.

Storage Tips:

To keep your cookies fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay soft and chewy for about 3-4 days.
If you want to keep them for a longer period, store them in the freezer. Simply place the cookies in a freezer-safe bag or container, and they will last up to 3 months.
For best results, separate layers of cookies with parchment paper when storing in a container, to prevent them from sticking together.
