White chocolate macadamia cookies are one of my favorites! Soft and chewy and loaded with white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts. The edges are light and crunchy, while the centers are soft and chewy. I wish I could share some with you. Some people like them with milk, however not me, I just eat more cookies because milk takes up too much room in my belly.  Lol.

This recipe does make a nice size batch, and yesterday was a fun day; my birthday! So I decided to share some white chocolate macadamia cookies with my friends and neighbor. I said to myself “it is the 23rd so I will give away 23 cookies”. I put 23 cookies in a large zip lock bag and put a picture of the cookies on face book and said that the first person who guessed the correct number of cookies in the bag, won the cookies.

And then I even delivered the cookies to the winner—it’s a good thing that they were local! I think I will do something fun like that from now on, on my birthday. I felt a lot happier than just getting gifts for myself. However I feel that the outpouring of love was a hundred fold! That was definitely the best birthday ever!!

The weather has been a little gray lately so it always makes you feel better if you can reach out and do something for someone else. Try making some of these white chocolate macadamia cookies today and share with someone that you feel might need cheering up. Try it and let me know how things turn out?  Enjoy.
