Ingredients
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 110 gram butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup white chocolate bits
Method
- 1Preheat oven to 180°C.
- 2Spread the macadamia nuts on a baking tray and roast for 5-8 minutes until they turn golden. Sprinkle with salt while still hot and roughly chop using a large knife.
- 3Beat the butter and brown sugar together until pale and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla, then continue beating for 5 minutes.
- 4Sift in the flour and baking powder. Mix to combine. Fold in the nuts and white chocolate until combined.
- 5Place small spoonfuls of dough on a baking paper-lined tray. Flatten slightly.
- 6Bake for 20 minutes (they are cooked when the cookies are golden and the edges begin to darken).
- 7Remove from the oven and cool. Store in an airtight container.
Notes
- If you want a flatter, chewy cookie, pull the tray out midway through cooking and bang it hard on the bench a few times before returning to the oven for the remaining cooking time.
