recipe Ingredients

This Macadamia Nut Cookie recipe uses pantry friendly ingredients, aside from the macadamia nuts, so, just keep some nuts handy, and you can make this recipe at a moments notice! Let’s take a closer look at what you’ll need (full measurements in the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post):

How to Make Macadamia Nut Cookies 

The Macadamia Nut Cookies come together in a few simple steps. Here’s an overview of the baking process: 

Mix the dry ingredients together. Combine the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Mixing the dry ingredients separately ensures that everything is evenly dispersed before combining with the wet ingredients and helps prevent overmixing.Cream the butter and sugar.  Beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium high speed until fluffy, then mix in the egg, milk and vanilla extract.   Combine all the ingredients. Mix in the dry ingredients just until combined, followed by the chopped macadamia nuts and chocolate chips.Chill the cookie dough. The cookie dough is sticky so it needs to be chilled first to make it easier to work with. Chilling will also help create beautifully plump, soft, thicker cookies that won’t spread. Cover the dough tightly with plastic wrap clinging to the surface of the dough and freeze for 45 hour or chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours up to 3 days before rolling.Roll cookie dough into balls. After chilling, use a 1 ½ tablespoon cookie scoop, to roll the cookie dough into balls.  Bake the cookies. Bake until the edges are golden but the centers still appear soft. The cookies won’t spread much, so after 8 minutes, I like to remove the baking sheet, drop it on the counter a few times to help spread, then return the cookies to the oven to finish baking. Works like a charm! Cool completely. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
