Recipe: White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

This is my husband's favorite cookie!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup macadamia nuts, chopped
• 1 cup white baking chips
• Directions
  Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour and baking soda; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in nuts and baking chips.
  Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on pans 1 minute. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Yield: 4-1/2 dozen.
  Freeze option: Freeze cookies, layered between waxed paper, in freezer containers. To use, thaw before serving or, if desired, reheat on a baking sheet in a preheated 350° oven 3-4 minutes.
