White Cranberry Macadamia Cookies

by Mindy on February 26, 2009


These are the prettiest cookies!  And it’s a bonus that they are so easy.  The bright red of the Craisin presents a beautiful contrast with the white cookie.  And the macadamia… well, there is a reason my husband calls these white cranberry “crack-adamias!”  They are so addictive.  Thanks to my friend, Mindy Black, for introducing me to these!

Haha! I love that Griff calls macadamias “crack-adamias” – hilarious! :) These look SO yummy! Jed always claims that his all-time favorite cookies are white chocolate chip Macadamia cookies even though I have never made them before. I will have to make these for sure, and put in white choc chips in half the batter. :) Love you, sis!

Scrumptious! It makes perfect sense to combine sweet macadamias with tart cranberries, sounds like a match made in heaven!

I made these last night- delicious! I used white choc chips and cherry craisins in a vanilla cake mix. The whole family loves them! Thanks for the recipe!

I've never been one to like nuts in cookies, but I may have to try these. I love cranberries in just about everything, so I will give it a shot. Would be a great treat to have at my Mother's christmas dinner. I know she'd love them.
