Note

Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze cooled cookies for up to 3 weeks.

Preparation: Dough can be prepared ahead of time. Chill dough in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking for thicker cookies.

Ingredient Tip: Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for proper creaming, which helps create a light texture.

Variation: You can toast the macadamia nuts lightly before adding them to the dough for extra crunch and flavor.
