Ingredients
- 226 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Light brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 320 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 150 grams Macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
- 150 grams White chocolate chips
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 light brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract, lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice until fully incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will still look soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
