How to Make Macadamia Nut Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Lightly grease two baking sheets.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups (300g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar, and 1 cup (200g) packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in 2 cups (200g) chopped macadamia nuts and 1 cup (100g) rolled oats.
  7. Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  8. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
