    Cashew-Macadamia Butter Cookies


    Source of Recipe


    Nic's Baking Sheet Blog

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
    1 cup brown sugar
    1 cup white sugar
    1 cup Cashew-Macadamia Butter
    2 eggs
    2-1/2 cups flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1-1/2 teaspoons salt (both types of butter I used were unsalted)
    1 heaping cup white chocolate chips/chunks
    1 cup dried cranberries

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 375 F.

    Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
    In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer, cream butter until fluffy. Add sugars and cashew butter and beat until well combined.

    Add eggs one at a time and beat until well incorporated.
    Stir in flour mixture by hand, then add white chocolate and cranberries.

    Drop by tablespoonfulls (and flatten them somewhat) onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for about 12 minutes, until cookies just begin to brown at edges.

    Laurel's Note: I also added 1 cup chopped macadamia nuts to the batter and chilled the batter for at least one hour before baking.

    Watch these cookies closely. They brown quickly. I cooked mine for about 9 minutes and they were perfect.
