Pre-heat oven to 325*F
In a medium bowl, mix together all of your dry ingredients except the sweeteners. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat together your sweeteners, butter, eggs and vanilla until just smooth.
Melt your chocolate-chips with the 1 tsp of butter in the microwave. (Use 30s increments, stirring in-between)
Add the melted chocolate to the wet ingredients and use a spoon to stir until smooth.
Add your dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and again stir with a spoon until a thick dough forms.
Mix in your chocolate-chips and macadamia nuts.
Line baking sheets with parchment paper and roll the dough into 20 large balls spaced evenly apart.
Flatten each ball to be just slightly thicker than you want the final cookie (see photos) as they will spread a bit.
Bake for 11min or longer IF NEEDED.
**IMPORTANT** these cookies will NOT look done when they come out. DO NOT OVER-BAKE. Let them sit until fully cooled on the tray, then place the tray in the freezer for ~10-15min to fully set before removing and placing on a plate. They will set-up but the middle will still be soft and chewy this way!
Store in an air-tight container between layers of parchment. Freeze for a future snack!
