Mixed Nut Cookies: Easy Homemade Cookie Recipe

Ready in about 35 minutes | Makes about 18 cookies

These easy mixed nut cookies combine buttery cookie dough with brown sugar, vanilla and crunchy mixed nuts. They're simple to prepare and perfect with coffee or tea.

Ingredients

½ cup (125ml) melted butter
6 tbsp (90g) brown sugar
¼ tsp (1¼g) baking soda
1¼ cups (195g) all-purpose flour
1 medium egg
½ tsp (2½g) vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
3 tbsp (45g) mixed nuts

How to Make Mixed Nut Cookies

1. Prepare the Dough

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with baking paper.

Sift the flour, baking soda and salt into a bowl.

In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar and vanilla. Add the egg and mix until well combined.

2. Add the Nuts

Gradually add the flour mixture and gently combine with a spatula.

Roughly chop the mixed nuts and fold them into the dough.

Cover and chill the dough for 20 minutes.

3. Shape the Cookies

Take about 1 tablespoon of dough at a time and roll into balls.

Place them on the prepared baking tray, leaving around 5cm (2 inches) between each cookie. Gently flatten.

4. Bake

Bake for 11–12 minutes in the centre of the oven, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Transfer to a cooling rack and allow the cookies to cool before serving.

Final Thoughts

These mixed nut cookies are quick, simple and easy to customise with your favourite combination of nuts. Enjoy them fresh with coffee, tea or as a homemade snack.
