Lime-Coconut White Chip Macadamia Nut Cookies

I made these cookies a couple weeks ago and sent some with Austin to work and everyone LOVED them. We all thought they were delicious too! These are a must make! If you go to ourbestbites.com there is a step by step picture tutorial too.

Recipe by ourbestbites.com

2 cups flour, spooned lightly into measuring cups and leveled with knife
1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon table salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled until luke warm
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chopped white chocolate or white chocolate chips
1 cup coconut (toasted or untoasted)
1 cup toasted macadamia nuts
1 1/2-2 tablespoons grated lime zest (1-2 limes)

If you haven’t melted your butter yet, do that so it has time to cool off.

Heat oven to 325 degrees. Mix flour, salt, and baking soda together in medium bowl; set aside.

Either by hand or with electric mixer, mix butter and sugars until thoroughly blended. Mix in egg, yolk, and vanilla. Add dry ingredients;mix until combined.

Add white chocolate chips, coconut, macadamia nuts, and lime zest. Mix to distribute.

Scoop cookie dough into balls and place on parchment lined baking sheets. Bake until cookies are set around outer edges, yet centers are still soft and puffy, and appear slightly under-baked, about 9-10 minutes (all ovens are different, keep an eye on them!) Cool cookies on cookie sheets for a few minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack.
