This is my mom and brothers favourite cookie so I decided to give it a try, and the turned out fabulously! I ground the nuts because neither my dad or myself like nuts in our cookies but it produced the same taste. I also added about a tablespoon of milk because I felt that the batter was too dry. Other than that they turned out perfectly, two thumbs up from the cookie lovers in the house!

For me there was a little too much salt. Next time we're going to double the recipe but do a 1/4 tsp less salt. This was a great find. It's my hubby's favorite cookie.

I have made a wide variety of cookies from here before, but this is by far the best! The cookies are not flat and they come out perfect! I baked at 350 and I added 1/8 cup more flour as someone else recommended. This time I used a regular cookie sheet instead of an insulated one. Perfection with this one!

These were really good cookies. Not too sweet,and easy to make. I couldn't find macadamia nuts that wern't salted, so I bought the salted ones and rinsed off the salt. It worked fine, but I would cut the salt back in the recpie though, maybe to a 1/4 tsp. Also, I doubled the recpie but didn't even use a full bag of white chips because that would have been too many (although I never use the full amount of chips in any recpie because I don't like a lot)

It does not get much better than this recipe. Super easy, turned out perfect the first time. Thanks for the great recipe! Will also try this recipe with double the "dough" and same of white chips and nuts.

These were a HUGE hit! Perfectly chewy and delicious, well-written recipe, pretty quick and easy to prep. I doubled the recipe and used an 11 oz bag of Ghiradelli white chocolate chips and a few handfuls of chopped macadamia nuts and it was good. Would recommend keeping the chunks of nuts a little larger (mine got a little small so there wasn't as much noticeable crunch). Great recipe!

These were so good! I was looking for a White Chocolate Macadamia recipie and it seemed like almost all of them had brown sugar in them- which I really don't think goes with this kind of cookie! This is exactly what I was looking for and they turned out great!

These are by far the best cookies I have ever made. That is saying a lot too because I bake about once a week. I followed the recipe exactly and had none of the "texture" issues that the other reviewers have mentioned. These cookies were just a little crispy on the outside and very soft on the inside. I got about 40 cookies and I baked them for about 9 minutes. Use room temperature butter(do not melt before creaming with the sugar). Also, the nut/chocolate amounts were perfect for our tastes. My husband will not leave them alone, and my co-workers say it is the best cookie they've ever tasted. Make these cookies, you will not regret it! They are better than subway or any other commercial cookie out there.

They were yummy, but a little too sweet. I eat sweets all the time, but this gave me a slight toothache.

Very tasty! I made a few batches and experimented each time with getting it just right. They've quickly become legendary. As suggested by other reviewers, I halved the amount of chocolate and nuts. It is still perfectly sweet. I also added an eighth of a cup more flour (just used half of a quarter cup) to give it more form so the edges don't get so thin and to keep the cookies from being floppy and fragile. With this recipe, I created about 14 cookies. I also chill the dough, shape the balls and pack them really tightly, re-chill them, then bake them on my baking stone for about 15 minutes. the chilling and packing with the extra flour too seems to prevent the spreading and create a perfect cookie shape. and i love to freeze the dough and bake fresh ones as needed.
