Ingredients: 1
Cup
Flour,
plus 2 Tb
1
T
Salt,
(I usually use less)
1/2
T
Baking Soda 4
Oz
Butter Or Margarine 6
Tb
Brown Sugar, Packed 6
Tb
Granulated Sugar 1
T
Vanilla 1
Egg 1/2
Cup
White Chocolate Chunks,
* see note
1/2
Cup
Macadamia Nuts,
** see note
Directions:
* I buy large good quality candy bars, such as Lindt, and chop them up.
** I use straight from the jar, you may prefer to chop up
Preheat oven to 375 F
Mix all dry ingredients together in a separate bowl
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until fluffy. Add vanilla and
egg--mix well.
Slowly add dry ingredients to butter/sugar mixture--mix well
Add chocolate and nuts
Spoon onto lightly greased cookie sheets (I use cushionaire--no burning)
Make whatever size you what--I tend to make them large because it saves
time
Bake 8-12 minutes, depending on size of cookies--they should not brown,
more of a golden color
Cool on rack
BTW: I usually make a double batch of the dough, separate into halves,
and add regular chocolate chunks and pecans to one (and maybe some
coconut), white chocolate and macadamias to the other--two cookies
with half the work
