White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies are cookies that I’ve always loved, but never personally made at home. I always reach for them when I see them at parties or in bakeries. But for some reason, I was intimidated to make them myself, from scratch.

Until now. After baking this recipe a handful of times, I’m no longer intimidated by them. In fact, if I could eat cookies for every meal, I’d bake them all the time!

For those of you who’ve been reading Rose Bakes for very long, you probably know that chocolate chip cookies are my favorite cookie of all time. And this recipe is my favorite recipe!

But now I can say with confidence that these White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies are a very close second favorite!

When I decided what flavor I wanted to bake for my next cookies in the 12 Days of Christmas Cookies series, I set out to find a good recipe. I landed in a collaborative cookbook that was given to me by my husband’s grandmother.

 The cookbook was pretty old, circa 1988, but I didn’t care as long as the recipe worked. And this from-scratch recipe did not disappoint!

Obviously you can use all white chocolate chips (that’s what the recipe calls for). But sometimes around Christmas, you can find these red and green chips and they make the cookies very festive!!

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375° F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly incorporate into the wet mixture. When it’s blended well, mix in the corn syrup.
  4. Stir the macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips into the batter.
  5. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto an ungreased cookie sheet (I like to line my cookie sheets with parchment paper). Bake for 9-12 minutes or until light brown on the edges. Allow to cool for 2 minutes on the pan, then move to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
  6. Enjoy!
