Macadamia Coconut Icebox Cookies Recipes

COCONUT MACADAMIA NUT COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract together until combined. Pour into dry ingredients and mix everything together until completely combined. Fold in the macadamia nuts and coconut. (You can use a mixer for this step if needed.)
• Cover and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours and up to 4 days. If chilling for longer than 2 hours, allow to sit at room temperature for at least 20-30 minutes before rolling and baking because the dough will be quite hard.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
• Roll cookie dough into balls, about 1.5 Tablespoons of dough per cookie, and arrange 3 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 12-13 minutes or until lightly browned on the sides. The centers will look soft.
• Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Melt the chopped white chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave in 15-second increments, stopping and stirring after each until completely smooth. Drizzle over cookies. Allow chocolate to set completely, about 30 minutes.

MACADAMIA-LIME ICEBOX COOKIES

Steps:

• Combine the macadamia nuts and 1 tablespoon superfine sugar in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped; pour into a small bowl and set aside. Combine the flour and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
• Beat the butter, remaining 3/4 cup superfine sugar and the lime zest in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in the egg until well combined, 1 minute. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture. Beat in the food coloring until evenly green. Stir in the macadamia nuts with a rubber spatula.
• Turn out the dough onto a large sheet of plastic wrap and shape into a log, about 10 inches long. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until very firm, at least 3 hours or overnight.
• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Trim the ends of the dough log. Roll the log in green sugar until completely coated. Slice the log into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Arrange the rounds 2 inches apart on the prepared pans. Sprinkle with more green sugar.
• Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are firm around the edges but not browned, 17 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely on the pans.
