Baking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugars

    In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy.

  4. 4

    Add Egg and Vanilla

    Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

  5. 5

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

  6. 6

    Fold in Chocolate and Nuts

    Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts.

  7. 7

    Scoop Cookies

    Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.

  8. 8

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked.

  9. 9

    Cool

    Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
