1 1/4 cups of plain flour (sieved)
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/2 cup of butter softened
1/4 cup caster sugar or organic sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon of vanilla bean extract
3/4 cup of white chocolate (haighs is fabulous)
1 cup macadamia nuts chopped
Preheat oven to approx 170 degrees celcius fan forced. Grease two baking trays with melted butter.
In a large bowl place butter and the sugars and beat with electric mixer until light and fluffy.
Beat in egg and vanilla then reduce the speed to slow and add a little flour. Blend the rest of the flour in with a wooden spoon. Then stir in the white chocolate chips with the macadamias.
Drop rounded tablespoons onto the trays 2 inch apart. Baking should take between 10 and 12 minutes and try to rotate the tray levels at half time. Move one up and one down.
Cool on wire racks completely before storing in containers.
