White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Coconut Cookies

.

Sounds like a lot of stuff for one cookie! But trust me, the flavor is amazing and you'll want to bake these cookies all the time! I got the recipe from the blog ForTheLoveofCooking, and I have to agree with her that these are the best cookies I have ever eaten. They are crispy on the outside but super soft on the inside.

Ingredients
  • 2 Cups Flour
  • 1/2 Tsp. Baking Soda
  • 3/4 Cup Melted Butter
  • 1 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup White Sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 Egg Yolk
  • 1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract
  • 6oz. Package of Macadamia Nuts (The salted kind)
  • 1 & 1/2 cups White Chocolate Chips
  • 1 Small good quality bar of white chocolate chopped into chunks
  • 1/4 Cup Coconut
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees and spray cookie sheet with nonstick spray or use a cookie liner.
  2. In a small bowl combine the flour and baking soda; set aside.
  3. In a large bowl cream together melted butter, brown sugar, white sugar, egg, egg yolk and vanilla. Add in the dry ingredients little at a time. Chop up the macadamia nuts (or throw them in a food processor like I did) and add them to the batter along with the white chocolate chips, white chocolate chunk and coconut.
  4. Place about a tablespoon of batter onto your prepared pans and bake for about 12-15 minutes. Let cool on a baking rack.
  5. If you have any left over white chocolate place it in a bowl with a little bit of cream and heat in microwave. Stir it around and you have a white chocolate drizzle for the top of your cookies! You could also toast some coconut to sprinkle on top.

Enjoy!
