Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 16oz. package refrigerated sugar cookie dough
Add-ins
- ¾ cup white chocolate chips
- ¾ cup chopped macadamia nuts
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure the cookies bake evenly and don’t stick.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the refrigerated sugar cookie dough, white chocolate chips, and chopped macadamia nuts. Mix thoroughly until the nuts and chips are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Portion Dough: Using a medium cookie scoop, portion out the dough into balls, spacing them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet to allow room for spreading.
- Bake Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown, indicating they are perfectly baked.
- Cool Cookies: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes. Then transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely, ensuring a crisp exterior and chewy center.
Notes
- For evenly sized cookies, use a cookie scoop to portion the dough.
- Ensure to line the baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
- Cooling the cookies slightly on the baking sheet before transferring helps them set and prevents breaking.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Can be frozen unbaked for up to 1 month; bake directly from frozen adding a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.
