Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1-1/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 jar (3-1/2 oz) macadamia nuts, finely chopped
filling:
1 cup (6 oz) semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
additional confectioners' sugar

Directions:

In a small bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Gradually add flour and mix well. Stir in nuts (dough will be stiff); set aside.
For filling, in a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Stir in nuts; cool slightly. Drop by 1/2 teaspoonfuls onto a waxed paper-lined baking sheet; cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Shape teaspoonfuls of dough around each piece of chocolate-nut mixture so it is completely covered. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake at 375° for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned. Roll warm cookies in confectioners' sugar; cool on wire racks. Yield: 2-1/2 dozen.
