Jazz up your white chocolate cookies with a bit of tropical-tasting coconut. They are thick, chewy, and absolutely stuffed with white chocolate, nuts, and coconut.

It’s been ages since I’ve baked anything with white chocolate, which is really just sad, so I set out to change that. I wanted to make the classic white chocolate macadamia nut cookies, but with a bit of flare. Jazz ‘em up a bit.
Enter: coconut! These cookies are thick and chewy, and absolutely stuffed with white chocolate, nuts, and coconut. So essentially, a tropical cookie.
