Sorry- forgot to post info last time, was in a rush. These are perhaps some of my most sought after cookies! I bring a tupperware container to work and the first questions are if its these yummy cookies! I used the coconut and white chocolate but not the nuts- way to expensive over here! Maybe I'll grab some while I'm Hawaii and try that then. I loved this recipe and shall make it again and again! Thanks so much, Ocean! -
These cookies are delicious! I didn't have any white chocolate chips so I substituted high-quality milk chocolate chips. They were heavenly! Don't over-bake--just lightly brown them. My husband is already asking when I'm going to make them again!

Made recipe as is but I got double the amount of cookies. I used a tablespoon cookie scoop and baked for 10 minutes. I didn't toast the coconut and not sure I would have noticed the difference. I did not find them overly sweet but just right for a really good cookie. Thanks for the recipe, it's a keeper! -
This recipe is great! I did exclude the white chocolate chips (hence the 4 stars) because I was afraid of it being too rich as others mentioned. I highly recommend excluding the white chocolate chips if you'd like a less rich cookie that enhances the coconut and macadamia nut flavor. A definite keeper! -
So easy to make and they turned out delicious. I did have to cook mine longer than 8 minutes. It took 13 minutes. I am at sea level so that might be the reason.

I added both walnuts and macadamia nuts.

I was looking for something to use my white chocolate chips one and I stumbled upon this recipe. I vegan-ized it by using margarine in place of butter and using flaxseed/water as an egg replacer. The result, while not looking all that pretty, was wonderfully tasty. Oh, and it appears as though I again could not correctly read a recipe. I used regular granulated sugar instead of brown. Guess it didn't matter in the end though :) Thanks for the wonderful recipe.
