macadamia nut cookies



oh look, i've finally baked cookies and thank goodness they're not chocolate chip cookies but these rugged white chocolate macadamia nut cookies. these smell damn nice while baking in the oven as the nut and white chocolate go really well hand in hand. just the sound of macadamia nut makes me dream of my traveling days back in down under.

as white chocolate is naturally sweeter than normal chocolate, i threw in a little lesser of them chips in fear that someone might choke on the sweetness. however it seems that these cookies can sure do better with a more generous bunch of white chocolate chips. these cookies go really well on a warm day with a mug of fresh milk.

you know there are times when your cookie goes a little soft and loses that fabulous crunch, well i realised that by dipping it in chilled fresh milk, tea or even your favorite cuppa chocolate, the crunch comes back all at once. little wonders of the bakers.
