Very delicious cookies that were a nice addition to my holiday trays. Easy to put together and bake! I never used macadamia nuts in a cookie recipe and they were unique. Note: I used rounded TABLESPOONS and got about 5 dozen cookies out of this recipe...about 8-9 minutes bake time was perfect. I can't imagine how many cookies I would have gotten if I used teaspoons as instructed :). Thanks for posting!

I made these last night and they're great! I used almonds instead of macadamias, reduced the sugar by 25%, and cut down the salt. When I tried to remove a few cookies from the sheet after 1 minute, they completely fell apart, so I let the rest of them cool about 5 minutes. They were easier to remove, but some of them still broke apart. I wonder how I can get them to stay together next time. Reduce the butter a little? Regardless, they're delicious cookies and very addictive. Thanks for the recipe!
