Tweaks
DD made these hence I don't have the weights, sorry. The recipe is in the latest Coles magazine.
If you wish to chop the macadamias in the TMX you will need to be very careful.
They are different to the other recipe on here and have a lovely taste.

ES - I recently made these with the following weights:
115g butter
50g brown sugar
1 egg
Squirt of vanilla paste
300g plain flour
1 teaspoon bicarb soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
150g choc chips
130g macadamias

The mixture was difficult to form into balls as it was very crumbly.
Next time, I might increase the sugar to 75g and reduce the choc Chips and nuts to 100g each.

These look great Cookie, I've added them to my very long list of things to make

Yes my list is enormous too. I write things down but then they get superseded. I will have to be thermomixing until about 120 to get through my list as it is.
