Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking soda. Stir until mixed. Set aside. 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda
- In the bowl of a stand mixer using a paddle attachment, place the butter, shortening and sugars. Mix until all ingredients are mixed well and the mixture is even, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. 2/3 cup salted butter , 2/3 cup vegetable shortening, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup brown sugar
- Add the eggs and vanilla, mix well. 2 large eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Add your dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in your stand mixer. Mix just until combined.
- Add the white and bittersweet chocolate chunks, white and bittersweet chocolate chips and dried mangos, then mix well. Add the macadamia nuts and coconut flakes and mix again. 4 ounce Ghirardelli white chocolate bar, 4 ounce Ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate bar, 1/2 cup Ghirardelli white chocolate chips, 1/2 cup Ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate chips, 3/4 cup dried mango, 1 cup macadamia nuts, 1 cup coconut flakes
- Scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie dough ball. Press any scraggly edges into the dough ball so that they bake up round and even.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. If you'd like a perfectly round cookie, swirl them in a mason jar ring or a large circle cookie dough cutter immediately after they come out of the oven.
- If you'd like a chocolate drizzle, melt the chocolate chips in a small microwave safe bowl in 10-15 second intervals. Stir well between each interval and then drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookies. Allow the chocolate to set before storing them. 1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
