White Chocolate Chip and Macadamia Nut cookies

3 years ago I baked this and I still remembered that my son loved it to bits as we brought it along on our Thailand trip, he couldn't stop snacking on in this.

Somehow, it became a forgotten recipe and I am now revisiting it again as I have a bag of white chocolate chip in the fridge.  Well don't ask me why I bought it as I personally don't find white chocolate is real chocolate.

Anyway, white chocolate goes really well with macadamia nut and I love this combination.

Yield: 31 pcs
What you need:

110 g unsalted butter
115g castor sugar
43g brown sugar
1 large egg, beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
170 g plain flour
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
½ tsp salt
175g unsalted macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
225g white/plain chocolate, chopped

Method:

Preheat oven to 190°C. Line a large baking sheet with baking parchment.

Cream the butter and sugars together until well combined and slightly fluffy. 
Stir in the egg and vanilla extract.

Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt.  
Add into creamed mixture and stir in until a soft dough is formed. 

Add the chopped nuts and chocolate chips and mix till they're evenly distributed.

Using a small ice cream scoop, drop the dough onto the lined baking sheet. 


The cookies will spread, so leave 2" gap between each ball. 

Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden brown. 

Cool one minute on the sheet; transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

  2. I enjoyed all of your recipe but can you make this chocolate dark? I think dark will be more attractive than white.
