Sweet and Salty Cashew Cookies

Chewy cookies are my favorite, and when they’re topped with salt, they’re even better! These cashew cookies are packed full of cashew flavor, using both chopped cashews and cashew butter! If you’re looking for a delicious, easy cookie recipe, this is the one.

Ingredients:

1 ¼ cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp kosher salt
½ cup cashew butter
½ cup unsalted butter, room temp.
¾ cup dark brown sugar
¼ cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup roughly chopped cashews
1 cup butterscotch baking chips

Flaky sea salt and extra cashews for topping

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a stand mixer cream butter, cashew butter, salt, vanilla, and both sugars. Once fluffy, mix in egg. Once fully incorporated, add in flour and baking soda and mix until starting to come together. Add in butterscotch chips and cashews. Mix until just combined. 

Scoop onto baking sheets and top with a cashew. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden. When removing from the oven, give the sheet pan a whack on a heat-proof surface to help flatten the cookies. Quickly sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Let cool on sheet pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!
