Tis the season for baking Christmas cookies! I just know you’re going to love these White Chocolate-Dipped Macadamia Nut Cookies. These oh-so chocolaty macadamia nut cookies, dipped in white chocolate, are the stuff sweet dreams are made of. Be sure to make a few extra to leave out for Santa.

Chewy chocolate macadamia cookies get a festive makeover with white chocolate and festive sprinkles. These decadent cookies rank right up there with some of my favorite Christmas cookies – including these Peanut Butter Blossoms, Peppermint Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Jam-Filled Butter Cookies. Oh, and I mustn’t forget these classic Italian Pignoli Nut Cookies. Can you tell that I REALLY like cookies?
