Description

Directions

• In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda and salt (I use a whisk), and set aside.
• Cream the butter and sugars together with a mixer (stand or hand-held). Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and mix well until just combined.
• Add the flour mixture in batches, mixing to combine in between each batch, until all the flour is incorporated.
• Stir in the white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill dough for about an hour.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
• Press a few more white chocolate chips and macadamia nut pieces onto the tops for extra flavor and presentation. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until edges just ever so slightly browned. The centers of the cookies will look very soft and a little puffy. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few seconds, then transfer to a wire cooling rack.
