Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
4 ounces cream cheese |
1 cup sugar |
1 egg yolk |
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract |
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup finely chopped toasted macadamia nuts |
1 tablespoon lemon zest |
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar |
Directions:
1. Beat first 3 ingredients at medium speed with an electric mixer 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add egg yolk, and beat until smooth. Stir in coconut extract.
2. Combine flour and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, beating just until blended. Stir in macadamia nuts and lemon zest.
3. Chill dough 30 minutes. Shape into 1-inch balls. Place 1 inch apart on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, and bake, in batches, at 350° for 15 minutes or until lightly browned on bottoms. Transfer to wire racks; let cool 2 minutes.
4. Place 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar in a bowl, and toss cookies to coat. Let cookies cool completely on wire racks. Toss in powdered sugar again, coating well.
