Original Recipe Yield 4 dozen
 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 2/3 cups vanilla baking chips
  • 4 ounces macadamia nuts, chopped

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
  2. In a large mixer bowl, beat butter and sugar until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla extract; beat until light and fluffy.
  3. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually blend into butter mixture.
  4. Stir in vanilla chips, and macadamia nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
