Tips & Substitutions
For chewier cookies, slightly underbake them and let them cool on the cookie sheet. You can substitute the white chocolate with dark chocolate or even milk chocolate if preferred. If you don't have macadamia nuts, walnuts or pecans can work as a delicious alternative. Ensure your butter is at room temperature for easier creaming.
Serving Suggestions
These white chocolate and macadamia nut cookies are delightful on their own, but they pair beautifully with a cold glass of milk or a warm Orange Milkshake. For an indulgent treat, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. They make a perfect addition to dessert platters for gatherings or casual get-togethers.
Storage & Reheating
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag, where they can last up to three months. To enjoy, thaw at room temperature or warm them in the microwave for a few seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when the cookies are done baking?
Cookies are done when the edges are lightly golden and the tops appear set but still soft. They will continue to cook on the baking sheet after being removed from the oven, so it's best to take them out just before they look fully baked.
