Ingredients
2/3 cup butter, browned
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
1 3/4 cups + 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
300g cherry chocolate, cut into large chunks
1/2 cup macadamia nuts, toasted and coarsely chopped
Maldon salt, for finishing
Directions
Using a stand mixer and paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars together until softened and light.
Add the egg, and vanilla and beat together.
In a separate bowl, mix all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together to combine then add to the stand mixer.
On low, begin to mix the dry and wet ingredients together just to combine.
Then mix in the chocolate chunks and macadamia nuts to combine.
Scoop even balls of dough onto a baking sheet then wrap tightly and set in the fridge for at least 24 hours, up to 36 hours.
At this point, the cookies are ready to bake or the dough is ready to be frozen for later. Before baking, top with another chunk of the cherry chocolate and sprinkle on some of the coarse Maldon salt. Bake at 350° F for 18 minutes, then allow to cool for at least 15 minutes (the cookies will firm up a bit!). Enjoy with a big glass of cold milk!
