Instructions 1. Brown the butter • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Continue cooking, swirling, until it foams and amber bits form (2–3 min). Transfer to a bowl; cool 10 min. 2. Make the dough • Whisk brown butter with both sugars until glossy. Beat in egg, yolk, and vanilla. • In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt; fold into wet mixture just until combined. • Stir in white-chocolate chunks and macadamias. Cover and chill 30 min. 3. Bake • Heat oven to 350 °F / 175 °C. Scoop 2-Tbsp mounds onto a parchment-lined sheet, spacing 2 in (5 cm). • Bake 10–12 min until edges are golden and centers slightly under-baked. Cool on tray 5 min, then transfer to rack. 4. Enjoy warm or store airtight up to 4 days (they rarely last that long!).
