Step-by-Step Instructions for Tropical Mango Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine ½ cup of softened unsalted butter with ½ cup each of brown and granulated sugar. Cream together until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Beat in 1 large egg until integrated, creating a smooth mixture.
  4. Whisk together 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tsp of baking soda, and ½ tsp of salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add to wet ingredients, mixing on low until just combined.
  5. Fold in 1 cup of diced mango and ½ cup of nuts until evenly distributed.
  6. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet, leaving space between each.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers are set but soft.
  8. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
