Ingredients
1/2cupsalted butter, softened at room temperature8 tbsp, 1 stick, or 113 grams
1/3cup+ 1 tbsp brown sugar, packed
1/3cup+ 1 tbsp granulated sugar
3/4tspvanilla extract
1largeegg
1 and 1/3cupsall-purpose flour
1/2tspbaking soda
1/8tspsalt
1/2cuproughly chopped macadamia nuts
1/2cupwhite chocolate chips
Instructions
Make the Cookie Dough: Cream the softened butter in a large mixing bowl on high speed until creamy. Add the sugars and mix until well combined with the butter, about 1 minute. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until just combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Mix in the nuts and white chocolate chips last.
Chill the Dough: Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Bake the Cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a few baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll the cookie dough into small balls, about 40 grams each. You should have 16-18 cookies. Spread cookie dough balls a few inches apart on a prepared baking sheet (I recommend doing one sheet at a time, and keeping the rest of the dough balls covered with a kitchen towel in the fridge). Bake cookies for 9 minutes.
Serve + Store: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes and then dig in, or transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temp for 4-5 days.
