The BEST Chewy White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies are so easy to make and will surely become a favorite! They freeze well and make great gifts, too!
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2/3 cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon corn starch
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cup macadamia nuts (I roughly chopped some and left some whole)
Directions
| Step 1 | |
| Preheat oven to 325 In a large mixing bowl cream together the butter and sugars very well. Add vanilla, eggs, and salt, and mix well. Add corn starch, baking soda, baking powder, and flour, and mix until combined. Stir in chips and nuts. | |
| Step 2 | |
| Drop by 2TBS onto an un greased baking sheet (I use a silicone baking mat) 2" apart. Bake for 10-11 minutes or until golden on the edges. Allow to cool a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a cooling rack. Store in an air tight container. These freeze beautifully, too!! | |

White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies are literally one of my favorites! I use to eat them all the time when I was little! We use to go to Subway after church almost every Sunday and I always got one when we were there!! haha
I love them!
Lorena says
These recipe by far is the best! I did half to give it a try and they were delicious! For sure I will do more for new years 💃
Judy says
I tried this recipe at Christmas and sent to my daughter. She didn’t get them till a week later and she said they were Ahhh-mazing! I agree. I baked some less and some more so I could try the soft version and the crunchy version, both were good. But I think the softer ones keep longer.. if there is such a thing! Make sure you use the genuine White chocolate (ghiradelly is great) and good quality mac nuts! Thanks again!

Hello Stephanie! If I make the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it overnight, do you think Ill still get the best texture?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Hi Rochelle! They will probably be a bit chewier but should still be wonderful. These are my hubby’s favorite 🙂
Nikki says
This may be a silly question but, do you use salted or unsalted macadamia nuts? I’m at Trader Joes and they have both. I’m not sure which ones to get.
Stephanie Brubaker says
Either one is fine. I use salted because that’s what I buy to snack on anyway 🙂
Anita says
What’s the purpose of using corn starch? I never used that before in any cookie recipe.
Stephanie Brubaker says
It keeps the cookies soft for dayyyss! 🙂 Enjoy!
