Chocolate Chunk Macadamia Nut Cookies

If you’ve ever had a macadamia nut, then you know exactly why I’m obsessed with them.

And you probably are too.

I know the whole “macadamia nut cookie” thing usually includes white chocolate… but have you ever had DARK chocolate with macadamia nuts? That’s the real pairing.

These cookies have all the tropical goods. Dates, dark chocolate, macadamia nuts, sea salt.

They’re a real good time.

Give yourself about 20 minutes to bake these and you’ll get what I mean.
