Ingredients

2 cups flour, all-purpose
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons butter , softened
1 cup brown sugar, light packed
3/4 cup sugar granulated
2 large eggs large, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 ounces chocolate (semi-sweet) cut into 1/4 inch chunks
1 cup macadamia nuts coarsely chopped
1/2 cup pecans coarsely chopped

Directions

Preheat oven to 350F.

Line two baking sheets with baking parchment or aluminum foil.

In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Sift the mixture.

In a large bowl, using a mixer set at low speed, beat the butter for 30-45 seconds or until creamy.

Gradually add the sugars and beat at medium speed for 1-2 minutes or until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then add the vanilla.

Using a wooden spoon, stir in the flour mixture.

Add the chocolate chunks, macadamia nuts and pecans, and stir until well combined.

Form the cookies by packing the dough into a 1/4-cup measuring cup.

Drop the formed dough onto the baking sheets, leaving about 3 inches between cookies.

Flatten the dough slightly with the palm of your hand.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges but still slightly soft in the center.

Cool the cookies on the baking sheets for 3-5 minutes.

Transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
