How to Make Macadamia Coconut Cookies Sandra Lee
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut, 1 cup chopped macadamia nuts, and ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-14 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the white chocolate drizzle: Melt 6 ounces of white chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of shortening in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Transfer the melted chocolate to a zip-top bag. Snip a tiny corner off the bag and drizzle over the cooled cookies.
