Once I was little, I assumed white chocolate macadamia cookies had been fancy! In any case, they don’t seem to be one thing that everybody makes usually so every time I obtained one I assumed it was a deal with! I imply macadamia nuts are a bit spendy in spite of everything, so I assume which may cause to name them fancy. Just a few years again I bear in mind seeing a bulk bin of them within the retailer I labored at and so they had been like $34/lb even again then (they’re in all probability extra now). I made a decision to purchase some at Aldi final weekend and I wished to make cookies with them. However swap it up from the white chocolate macadamia cookies to Vegan Double Chocolate Macadamia Cookies with darkish chocolate. As a result of I actually truly desire darkish chocolate as scrumptious as white chocolate is.
I used my chocolate chip cookie base, which I’ve perfected to come back out good each time and added cocoa powder to make it a chocolate base. It has apple sauce in it to make the cookies chewy (the best way I like my chocolate chip cookies)! For the fats I exploit coconut oil, because it behaves form of equally to butter in these cookies and provides them simply the correct amount of richness. This dough is so heavenly and scrumptious! I did must get pleasure from some whereas making them, that’s the better part, proper?
I added in vegan darkish chocolate chips, as a result of these are my favourite and naturally the macadamia nuts. Which had been toasted and salted to make them already scrumptious. As I discussed earlier I discovered them at Aldi, and be warned they’re fairly addicting if you begin to snack on them. I ate virtually the remainder of the bag whereas making the cookies. These cookies smelled completely wonderful whereas baking, like chocolaty brownies! I couldn’t wait to style them!
I needed to pattern one heat whereas the chocolate chips had been nonetheless gooey and it was so heavenly! They had been chewy and wealthy with chocolate taste, candy with a touch of vanilla and the decadent darkish chocolate and crunchy salty macadamias had been the right pairing! If you’re within the temper for one thing chocolaty and scrumptious, undoubtedly make a batch of those Vegan Double Chocolate Macadamia Cookies!
