What You Need

pkg. (4 oz. each) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate

3/4

cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/4

cup (1/2 stick) butter or margarine, softened

eggs

tsp. vanilla

1/2

cup flour

1/4

tsp. CALUMET Baking Powder

cups chopped PLANTERS Macadamias

1-1/2

pkg. (4 oz. each) BAKER'S White Chocolate (6 oz.), chopped

Make It

PREHEAT oven to 350°F. Microwave semi-sweet chocolate in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min., stirring after 1 min. Stir until chocolate is completely melted. Add sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla; stir until well blended. Add flour and baking powder; mix well. Stir in nuts and white chocolate.

DROP rounded tablespoonfuls of dough, 2 inches apart, onto ungreased baking sheets.

BAKE 12 to 13 min. or until cookies are puffed and shiny. Cool 1 min.; remove from baking sheets to wire racks. Cool completely. Store in tightly covered container at room temperature.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Note

If omitting nuts, increase flour to 3/4 cup to prevent the cookies from spreading excessively during baking.

Substitute

Substitute 1 cup dried cranberries for 1 cup of the macadamias.

Substitute

Prepare as directed, using toasted PLANTERS Slivered Almonds.

I had to add more flour because the batter was far too thin to form any sort of ball. Even with the extra flour, the cookies still flattened out and burned. I managed to save some, but with the ingredients being as costly as they are, it was a shame to have to throw more than half the batch away.

I love this recipe because it's easy to put together and i make it every year for Christmas and it's one of the best.

These cookies were deliciously rich and chocolately. Sufficient for satisfying ANY chocolate craving! They are loaded with chocolate and are thick and chewy like brownies. (I don't even like brownies and these were WONDERFUL!)

Well, the first time they came out really flat and I had to add about 1/2 cup more flour and 1/4 cup more sugar. Then they were really good!!The chocolate and the nuts with the white chunks of white chocolate.....Great recipie

I got so many compliments on these cookies! They turned out to be delicious! However, I found that i needed just a little more flour than the recipe suggested. Walnuts also make a great substitute for the pecans.

These are good and easy. They do tend to get crispy quickly, which causes them to lose some flavor. Overall they're popular.

They really only make about 18 cookies and take longer to bake than stated in the recipe...but THESE ARE AMAZING. They truly taste gourmet. Everyone will ove them...kind of like brownies.

The cookies tasted great. They didn't make as many as the recipe said they would. They also got hard quickly. I put them in with some other freshly baked goodies and they softened up. The expense of the nuts make these not an every day cookie. They were easy to make but I wouldn't suggest cooking them for as long as the recipe says to.
