Soft buttery and delicious! I didn't use the macadamia nuts so I added an extra half-cup each of cranberries and white chocolate chips. Also I thought the cookies were too small when made with a rounded teaspoon. There just weren't enough morsels in every bite so I made them bigger and cooked them around 14 - 15 minutes. Perfection!
These cookies are amazing. I tell everybody how yummy they are but no seems too thrilled to try them. Once they do they are hooked! Even my 6 year old loves em' nuts and all! You won't regret making them. Excellent Christmas cookie too!
This is one of my all time favorite cookie recipes. Every time I make them, they disappear!
I did find however that they take more like 15 minutes to bake.
5+++! Absolutely heavenly! I was looking for a macadamia nut recipe other than the normal cookies I bake. This one is a true winner. Not only do these look good, they are soft and taste buttery rich. I followed the recipe to a "T". The batter is easy to mix up and I ended up with about 46 cookies. Baking time is approximate and the cookies will sink slightly once removed from the oven to cool, just as submitter states. I love the combination of the buttery, tart, sweet and chocolate all mixed up in one. In every bite I can taste the tart cranberries and bits of chocolate chip morsels. And I especially love the macadamia nut crunch and texture it gives the cookies. The sugar adds a nice balance of sweetness, not overly sweet. These are a delicious delicacy! I wouldn't change a thing in this recipe. These cookies are so delectable and pleasing and I think these could be baked for special occassions or holiday's.
This is now my favorite cookie recipe! These turned out perfect! (I used less than one cup of cranberries Craisins chopped though)
These are great! I will make again great for sharing. I made them bigger about 2-TLBS rolled into a ball which made a nice sized cookie.
I took this cookie to several christmas cookie exchanges and each time received many,many compliments. Nice Christmas cookie since the cranberries add a nice holiday color. Very buttery and delicious!
When I sampled the dough before cooking I felt something was lacking. I added about 1 cup of fruit punch to the recipe to moisten the dough and add a kick. My family friends and I were very pleased with the results after that little edition.
Delicious! Didn't change a thing. Will make these for years to come!
I found these to be way too sweet but I love the white chocolate/cranberry/macademia combo. I think next time I'll just use my regular chocolate chip cookie recipe and sub the chocolate chips for this combo. And I might use extra cranberry and macademias and go lighter on the white chocolate to reduce the sweetness too. Great idea though!
