White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

I don't think these would be as good as the ones that pepridge farm makes, but they might be good. I'm not a big fan of white chocolate though, so I would use milk chocolate instead.

Makes about 3 dozen
1 Cup Plus 2 Tbs. flour
1/2 tsp. Baking soda
1/4 tsp. Salt
1/2 Cup Unsalted butter, softened
1/2 Cup Light brown sugar, packed
1/4 Cup Granulated sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. Vanilla
9 oz White chocolate chips
1 Cup Macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped

Preheat oven to 375F. In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking soda and salt. In large bowl, using a hand-held mixer set at medium speed, cream butter with the sugars for 2 to 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Reduce speed and beat in the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in the white chocolate and macadamia nuts. Using a rounded tablespoon of dough, drop cookies onto a cookie sheet (either air-bake or with parchment paper.) leave about 1 inch between the cookies. Bake 9-12 minutes, until lightly golden. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and cool completely
