Ingredients
  

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

½ cup unsalted butter, softened (1 stick)

½ cup granulated sugar

½ cup packed brown sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup white chocolate chips

1 cup macadamia nuts, roughly chopped

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

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

      Cream Butters and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

        Add Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until thoroughly combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.

          Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

            Fold in Add-ins: Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts with a spatula or wooden spoon until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

              Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoons, drop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie to allow for spreading.

                Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still appear soft.

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

                    Enjoy: Once cooled, enjoy these delightful cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite warm beverage!
