I increased sugar to 1/3 cup PLUS 2 T. I also waited and added the jam very last. I only swirled it in lightly so that cookies would not be the blueish-green mentioned previously. Did not use the macadamia nuts at all. I used a 3 T. cookie scoop and got 1 dozen LARGE cookies. They were extra yummy. I was trying to copy the cookies at Disneyland bakeries...pretty close.
i think this is a good recipe.. my boyfriend loves it:) but i think the key point in making the cookies is that do NOT mix the jam too well into the dough--- i added the jam at last and just mix it a bit..didnt blend it comepletly with the dough. that prevent the cookies from becoming greenish blue!!
The dough looked green and I also didn't bake them; but I was glad I did. They are so tasty. They baked up light brown and you could taste the raspberry. They were a hit and I will definitely put this recipe with my favorite cookies. Mine were not flat. I used only about a half teaspoon per cookie.. also like a ball. Thanks.
These cookies are wonderful...they didn't last very long in the cookie jar!
Though these cookies tasted good the color is not appealing at all. I suggest that you put in that you must use a spoon to mix the jam in to swirl the dough instead of using a mixer.
I prefer my regular recipe (w/o raspberry) but these were popular. They were a little flat and stickier than I would have liked they were also bluer than pink. However I was asked for the recipe.
I also folded the jam in last and did not mix well. Huge hit at the church bake sale today one of the first things to sell. Absolutely will make again.
It was very easy to make however the were flat in taste. I don't think I would make them again. Carrie Langley BC - Canada
The cookies were yummy but I had to change the recipe for them to come out right. I added 2 Tbs more brown sugar and 1/2 tsp salt to the flour mixture so the cookies would rise and be fluffy. I also used white chocolate chips instead of the chopped white chocolate. I dealt with the jam by folding it into each individual scoop of cookie dough. It's messy but comes out gorgeous. Thanks!
