WHITE CHOCOLATE CHIP CASHEW NUT COOKIES

Hello everyone!!!
Wouldn’t your Mondays be infinitely better with a sweet treat? Yes, yes they would. 🙂
Here is my first baking recipe for my blog!
108I was bored one Sunday afternoon.  So I went into my kitchen, opened my pantry and found the left over white chocolate chip which I bought for making strawberry fudge (for which the recipe will be uploaded soon 🙂 ). I heard a voice in my head saying “take it and finish it off for god sake!”. But I don’t want to eat it as is. So I came up with the idea of making something. So after good few seconds of pinteresting I came up with this recipe White Chocolate Macadamia Nuts Cookies and her pictures looked delicious. I tried this substituting with cashew nuts as I had no macadamia nuts at home. And tada..  Here is my mouth watering white chocolate chip cashew nut cookies. You should definitely try it. I m sure you will not regret.
111It should be crispy on the outside and soft and chewy inside.
118I thought the original recipe would be too much for two of us. So I reduced the ingredients by half.
107Cookies anyone?
