Ingredients
- 150 g dark chocolate broken into pieces
- 50 g butter cut into cubes
- 50 g plain flour
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- 2 eggs
- 250 g caster sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 100 g dark chocolate chopped
- 1 cup macadamia nuts chopped
- 2 tablespoons bourbon whiskey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Melt the chocolate pieces and butter in the microwave or on the stove top and allow to cool.
- In a mixer, beat together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla essence until thick and pale.
- Pour the melted chocolate into the beaten eggs and sugar. Stir through before adding the bourbon.
- Sift in the flour and baking powder. Stir through before adding the chopped chocolate and macadamia nuts, and mix until combined.
- Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the mixture onto the lined baking trays. The cookies will flatten out when baked.
- Bake in the oven for 8–9 minutes and cool on the tray before transferring to a cooling rack. If you put the cookies onto the cooling rack while hot, they will become marked by the wires from the rack.
