My favorite feeling of the day is when the dishes are clean, the clothes are put away, my boyfriend and dog are fed, checkbooks have been balanced (as if I ever do that….), and I can sit on the couch and relax. I even bought groceries, paid the bills, and filed our taxes today. Talk about total relaxation.
Knowing everything is right in my little world. The only thing that can make this moment better? A cookie. A really good cookie.
Yesterday I walked around Dallas and took some pictures, which are over at Nikon Natalie. I left for my adventure around 2, and by the time I got home around 5 I realized I had not eaten one thing the entire day. How does that happen?
I scarfed down some 3 bean chili I had in the fridge and knew I wanted to make something sweet to enjoy as I relaxed that evening. I don’t mean to sound over-confident when I say I threw these together, but I really did. And I didn’t know they would be so flavorful. The lime zest makes this cookie addicting. All the flavors are sweet and delectable, then you have this little bit of tart, and you want more. A lot more.

Tips And Tricks
To make these chewy cookies, start by mixing white chocolate chips and butter. You can use mini or regular sized chips, depending on your desired texture. The dough should be soft and malleable. Refrigerate and thaw at room temperature, or freeze up to a month before baking. To make these cookies, remove the dough from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before baking. If you want them to be slightly crisper, add more coconut and macadamia nuts.
If you prefer, you can also use regular white chocolate chips. You can freeze the cookies once they are baked. You can make them a day or two ahead of time, and store them in an airtight container. The white chocolate will lose its crunchiness a bit, but the coconut and macadamia nuts will compensate for the loss in crunchiness. If you want to store these cookies for later, you can do so in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month.
