Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 Cup Flour
  • 1/2 Tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 Tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Cup Butter Unsalted
  • 3/4 Cup Brown Sugar Packed
  • 3 Tbsp Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 2 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 Cup Cranberries Dried
  • 1/2 Cup Macadamia Nuts
  • 1 Cup Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
  • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In medium bowl sift flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  • In large bowl cream butter with both sugars until mixed thoroughly.  Add egg and vanilla and continue beating to incorporate. Add small portion of flour mixture and heat well combined. Continue slowly adding flour, beating between each addition until all flour is incorporated.
  • Add cranberries, nuts and 3/4 cup of chocolate chips (reserving some to decorate cookies) and fold into the dough.  
  • Add a heaping tablespoon of dough to prepared baking sheet and continue adding cookie dough to sheet spacing approximately 2” apart.
  • Press remaining chocolate chips randomly into cookie dough.  This step is really optional, it just really makes your cookies more attractive. You could also reserve some of the cranberries and nuts as well and press into the dough.
  • Bake for 11-12 minutes.
