brown butter white chocolate macadamia nut cookies

lately our summer days have been non-existent. cloudy days are baking days. these scrumptious cookies caught my eye because my mom just came bag from hawaii with a huge bag of macadamia nuts.

recipe
1 stick butter
1c brown sugar
2tbs. milk
1 egg
1tsp. vanilla
13/4c flour
1/2tsp. baking soda
1/8tsp. salt
1/2c coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
1c white chocolate chunks

preheat oven to 350 degrees. grease your baking pans. start off with browning the butter. melt the butter over the stove until you see brown flakes forming on the bottom of the pan. it will take about 5-7 minutes. then remove from heat and let cool. while the butter is cooling start combining your dry ingredients in a bowl. then beat together the cooled browned butter and sugar for 2 min. add the egg. then add the milk and vanilla. then the dry ingredients. finish off by stirring in the chopped nuts and chocolate and scoop dough onto baking sheets. bake for 9-11 min until just golden brown.

this recipe came from joy the bakers blog. these were super easy to make and the browned butter factor made them that much more delicious. i baked them in two different sizes and came out with about 2 dozen cookies. baked for right around 9 min! enjoy mmm.
