Good hearty cookies. The addition of dried cranberries was especially nice. The dough was VERY stiff; I had to leave out the last 1/2 cup of oatmeal and add about a tablespoon of milk in order to incorporate the remaining ingredients. Couldn't taste the macadamias much. I got 48 cookies and then some.
