Step 1

Pre-heat your oven to 350 °F.

Step 2

Cream together your butter and sugar until it’s light and fluffy. Add in the eggs and vanilla, mixing thoroughly. Beat in the flour, baking soda and salt.

Step 3

When that is done, fold in the  chocolate chips and macadamia nuts by hand, and prepare to put them on some parchment paper lined cookie sheets.

Step 4

Drop by rounded teaspoonful onto the baking sheets OR if you want to make huge cookies, use an ice cream scoop sized cookie scoop and drop them on the sheet, 6 to a sheet, well spaced apart.

Step 5

Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown and slightly underdone for the small cookies. Bake for 15-16 minutes for the large, checking to make sure that the edges are baked completely and the middle is almost baked through but not quite. Cool on the sheets completely.
