Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 150 grams Brown sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 260 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 170 grams Dark chocolate, chopped
- 85 grams Macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until well incorporated.
Step 4
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the chopped dark chocolate and macadamia nuts using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Step 7
Scoop the dough into tablespoon-sized portions and roll into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look slightly underbaked.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve the cookies once they are cool, and store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
