Back to school means back to baking, I’m bored with the usual chocolate chip cookies, so pulled out some old favourite recipes for my big bake up this week.
These white chocolate and macadamia nut cookies are chunky and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The mixture might seem a little dry when you are making it, but don’t despair, it’s supposed to be like that. Lovely for morning or afternoon tea or a treat to pop in your mouth any time of the day!
125g butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup plain flour
1 cup self-raising flour
200g white chocolate, roughly chopped
150g macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
Beat butter and brown sugar until thick and creamy.
Add egg and vanilla and continue to beat until well combined.
Mix in flours until just combined, then add white chocolate and nuts and stir to form a chunky mixture.
Place spoonfuls of mixture onto tray lined with baking paper and press down slightly with your fingers.
Bake in 175 degree celsius oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
