Macadamia Nut Cookies

Santa won't be able to pass up these cookies! 

The base of our Macadamia Nut Cookies is similar to an ooey-gooey traditional chocolate chip cookie, but there's so much more to these tropical treats.

This recipe is packed with the buttery, salty crunch of Island Harvest Macadamia Nuts and balanced with sweet white chocolate chips for a seasonal flavor you won't be able to resist.

These are a wonderful way to share the flavors of Hawaiian Holidays with your ohana (but be sure to keep a few for yourself 😉).

• ½ cup unsalted butter room temperature

• ¼ cup light brown sugar packed

• ½ cup granulated sugar

• 1 large egg

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• ½ teaspoon salt

• 1 cup white chocolate chips

• ½ cup coarsely chopped roasted Island Harvest Macnuts

Method

1. Heat oven to 350°F.
