White Chocolate Chip, Cranberry, Macadamia Nut Cookies

So I tried modifying a couple of recipes and ended up with a really delicious cookie recipe with white chocolate chips, dried cranberries, and macadamia nuts in them. The chewability on these is pretty high :)

I didn't get a chance to take any pictures of them, they were devoured too quickly! But next time I make them, I'll be sure to snap a few.

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt (unless using salted butter)
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup macadamia nuts (or walnuts if you prefer)
3/4 cup dried cranberries

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Cream together the butter and sugars. Add in the egg and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, mix together flour, salt and baking soda. Add the dry ingredients into the bowl of wet ingredients. Stir in white choc. chips, nuts, and cranberries.
Drop about tablespoon sized balls onto a baking sheet. Bake for about 9 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned. They will still be slightly doughy when you take them out of the oven, so let them cool on the baking sheet for about a minute before transferring them onto a wire rack...or into your mouth.
Enjoy!
