These cookies are reminiscent of a white chunk macadamia nut cookie but better. Using slivered almonds instead of macadamia nuts is a more economical alternative. Follow baking directions. The cookies can be a little tricky to get right on the first pan. Unless the oven is preheated, they might not turn out. Note that these cookies don’t bake well on airbake pans.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups margarine, softened
- ¾ cup white sugar
- 2 ¼ cups packed brown sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons almond extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 3 cups regular rolled oats
- 1 ½ cups sweetened flaked coconut
- 4 (1 ounce) squares white chocolate, chopped
- 1 (3.5 ounce) jar coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two cookie sheets.
Step 2
Cream the margarine together with the white sugar and brown sugar in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time until thoroughly blended. Mix in the vanilla and almond extracts.
Step 3
Stir the flour, baking soda, salt, and rolled oats together in a mixing bowl until well blended. Stir the flour mixture into the sugar mixture. Mix in the coconut, white chocolate, and macadamia nuts until evenly blended. Drop by tablespoonfuls 1 inch apart on prepared cookie sheets.
Step 4
Bake in preheated oven until centers are set and edges are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool 3 minutes on baking sheets before removing to cool on a rack.
