So glad I found this recipe. I had lost the recipe. I use to make them for coworkers that loved them. They are not the cheapest cookies to make because of the price of Macadamia nuts, and I used Ghirardelli white chocolate bars which are a little more expensive than the chips, but they are worth it. They are so yummy. All the flavors work together in these cookies, so if you are sick of the same old chocolate chip cookies give this recipe a try.
