White Chocolate Cranberry Macadamia Nut Cookies a.k.a. Hootycreeks

June 26, 2013

I went to a holiday cookie exchange and had some delicious cookies that I kept daydreaming about. I love myself some craisins, and they were inside this delectable cookie. I remembered the cookies had a really odd name, that had the word “hooty” in them. I just called them hooty cookies.

1 Stick of Butter, Softened
1/2 Cup of Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup of White Sugar
2 Eggs
1/2 tsp of Almond Extract (love the flavor this gives)
1/2 tsp of Vanilla Extract
1/4 tsp of Salt
1 1/2 Cups of Flour
1/2 tsp of Baking Soda
1 Cup of Dried Cranberries
1 Cup of Roughly Chopped Macadamia Nuts
3/4 Pkg of White Chocolate Chips

Drop the butter and the two sugars into your mixer and cream them up good. Now add in your eggs, and both extracts. Mix it up well. Add in the salt and flour and mix it up. Now add in the soda and mix it up one more time. Finally, throw in your nuts, berries, and chocolate and mix it up by hand. Drop your dough in tbsp size balls onto your baking sheet. You can grease up your sheet or use parchment paper. Throw them into your oven preheated to 35o degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
