My favorite store-bought cookie is the Great American Cookie Company's White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookie. It's better than any macadamia cookie out there ... anywhere. I FINALLY found a copycat recipe online (recipelink.com) that's as close to GACC's version as you can get. Enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 c butter (1 stick), softened
1 c dark brown sugar
1/2 c coconut flakes, finely minced
1 egg
1 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 c all purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
8 oz solid white chocolate, cut into chunks
1 c macadamia nuts, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar on high speed.
  • 2. Add coconut, egg, milk and vanilla; mix well.
  • 3. In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and combine until dough forms.
  • 4. Mix in the white chocolate and nuts.
  • 5. Measure out about 2-1/2 tablespoons dough and form a ball. Drop each ball of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet about 3 inches apart. Bake for 12-14 minutes. (I use a cookie scoop for less mess)
