Homemade Sausalito Cookies

 

1 cup butter

1 cup turbinado sugar or ½ cup each light brown sugar/white sugar

¼ cup light brown sugar, packed

2 eggs

2 tsp. vanilla

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. kosher salt

2 3/4 cup flour

2 cup milk chocolate chips

1 cup salted macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped

Preheat oven to 350°F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In the bowl of your stand mixer mix the butter and both sugars on medium speed for 2 minutes until combined. Add in the eggs, vanilla, baking soda and salt and combine for 1 minute.

Turn the mixer to low and add in the flour, mixing until just combined. Add in milk chips and macadamia nuts.

Using a medium cookie scoop drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet 2-3 inches apart.  Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden at the edges. 

Remove from the oven and allow the cookie to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
