Macadamia Nut Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter (margarine ok but not as tasty)
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups all-purpose flour
12 ounces chocolate chips (white or regular)
1 cup nuts (macadamia or pecan or walnut)
Mix first 6 ingrdients untill it looks creamy

Gradually add dry ingredients (baking soda, salt, flour) until all combined.
Add nuts and chocolate chips.
Drop by rounded spoonful on baking sheet. I cook at 350 degrees for about 14-15 minutes. Do not let it et too brown if you want them soft.
The secret is the almond extract when you use macadamia nuts and white chocolate.
YUM!
