Chocolate Chip Macadamia Nut Cookies
Ah, the glorious cookie! A staple of every sweet-toothed snack enthusiast. And when you add chocolate and macadamia nuts into the mix, you’re not just baking; you’re crafting edible happiness!
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped macadamia nuts
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Get ready for some serious cookie action!
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. This is where the magic begins!
- Add in the vanilla extract and eggs, mixing well until you have a lovely batter.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to your wet mixture. It’s okay if it gets a bit messy; that’s part of the fun!
- Fold in those delicious chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts. Honestly, at this point, you might want to sample a bit of the dough (we won’t tell!).
- Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto ungreased baking sheets. Make sure to leave some space for them to spread out during baking!
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are nicely golden brown. Your kitchen will smell like a slice of paradise.
- 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. Patience is key; we promise it’s worth it!
And there you have it! A platter full of melt-in-your-mouth Chocolate Chip Macadamia Nut Cookies. Perfect for sharing (or not; we won’t judge your cookie hoarding). Enjoy your sweet masterpiece!
