  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt (cut to 1/2 tsp if using salted butter)
  • 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup roasted macadamia nuts (roughly chopped)
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone liner.
  • Cream together the butter and sugars in a large bowl for about 3 minutes. 1 cup unsalted butter, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • Add in the eggs and vanilla and stir into the creamed butter. 2 large eggs, 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Add the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, and salt) to the wet ingredients and stir everything together till combined, and you have a nice soft cookie dough. 2 3/4 cups all purpose flour, 1 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp salt
  • Add in white chocolate, macadamia nuts, and shredded coconut and gently stir them until mixed evenly into the batter. 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips, 1 cup roasted macadamia nuts, 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • Scoop the cookie dough into large 2 TBS sized cookie balls. Roll them into smooth balls.
  • Place cookie balls onto the prepared cookie sheet about 2-3 inches apart to allow for spread.
  • Top the cookies with a few extra white chocolate chips if desired.
  • Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges just start to turn golden, and the tops are barely set.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Leave the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 to 10 minutes to cool, as they keep baking.
  • Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely, or let them cool another 5 to 10 minutes, then enjoy.
