Recipe & WILW

This weekend I made White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookies. They were divine!!  I got the recipe on the back of the Nestle Tollhouse package.

{Ingredients}

• 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 2 cups (12-oz. pkg.) NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Premier White Morsels
• 1 cup flaked coconut, toasted if desired
• 3/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts or walnuts

{Directions}

--PREHEAT oven to 375° F.
--COMBINE flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Beat in egg. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels, coconut and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.
--BAKE for 8 to 11 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

BTW -- does anyone else think of this Friends episode when Monica is trying to perfect the cookie recipe for Phoebe??
