These cookies were very easy to make and delicious. I gave them as part of my care packages during Christmas and they were a big hit. I will definately make them again. I changed the white chocolate chips to white chocolate chunks....Mmmm Mmmm good!

This is a fantastic, buttery cookie! The only changes I made were to slightly reduce the amount of nuts and to add a cup of dried cranberries. They were absolutely delicious!

These are absolutely delicious. I was looking for a recipe that tasted very similar to the ones from Subway, and these are identical, if not better. The key for me was to bake them only for 8 minutes; they turned out nice and soft. My favorite cookie ever.

Delicious! I made a few changes: I used a whole cup of butter instead of half shortening. I also added a teaspoon of almond extract. For me, this is really key in a good white choc macadamia cookie. Highly recommend adding the almond extract!

Wonderful! I was concerned because everyone was either 5 stars or 1 star....but they are NOT too floury. I followed the recipe to a T and they came out perfectly! They aren't crumbly or floury tasting as some reviewers state. Just measure your flour carefully, and don't put in more chips or nuts than the recipe calls for and they'll be lovely! OH and DO NOT overbake! Cookies are done when the edges start to brown, even if the middle looks a little less done. Good luck, this recipe is great...keep trying! :-)

Great recipe - I baked for 7 min's tops and took them right off the pan to the counter so they stay nice and chewey. If they are still too chewy after they cool just put them in the fridge! The smaller the cookie size the better they cook when you make them chewy. Little tip -no charge!

Very good! I'm glad I chose this recipe amongst the other white macadamia nut cookies =] 10 minutes was the perfect time in the oven, and then another 2 minutes of rest on the stove before transferring to paper grocery bags covered in paper towels [helps absorb some of the grease, and these have plentyyy to spare] Was exactly what I was looking for, and while I'm notorious for adding extra things here and subtracting things there, this recipe needs no modifications. Perfect as is.
