- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, chopped
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Cooking Tips:
- Use room temperature butter for easy mixing.
- Don't overmix the dough, or the cookies will turn out tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading.
- Use a cookie scoop to ensure even-sized cookies.
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the egg until well combined.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
6. Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts.
7. Using a cookie scoop, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
11. Dip the cooled cookies halfway into the melted chocolate and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
12. Let the chocolate set at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
