My Tech Lead, Ed, wanted white chocolate chip cookies but not with macadamia nuts. He wanted honey roasted cashews. At first I was not sure, but it was fantastic! I got the Ghirardelli white chocolate chips and followed their recipe with some minor modifications.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
3 cups sifted flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 cups (one 11 oz bag) Ghirardelli Classic White Chocolate Chips
1 can (8 oz) honey roasted cashews
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter and sugars until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add vanilla and eggs, one at a time, and beat well. Blend in flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in white chocolate chips and nuts. Drop by large spoonful onto parchment paper covered cookie sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Cookies may still look a little uncooked but that is how you want them. Do not let them brown.
Happy birthday Ed and thanks for the great cookie idea! |
