I leave the nuts out for our family, but these are very tasty!

A co-worker brought me back some dry roasted macadamia nuts from Hawaii, so I just had to try this recipe! I used Chipits pure white chocolate chips in place of the vanilla chips. These brownies are so dark & fudgey & the nuts & chips are a nice surprise when you take a bite. I found the texture to be more cake-like than brownie-like.

Marg......These were yummy, yummy, yummy as my DS described! I didn't use the nuts because I was making these specifically for my son and he's not into nuts in his food. Took a pic while they were baking and asked Kathy to leave your pic as the default because yours is more appealing. Anyway, great recipe and my son said I must make these for his cousins when they come over @ Christmas. Also, he demanded I make them to look like your picture, snowflakes and all. Thanks Marg I thought I could get away without drizzling the white chocolate on the top BUT the DS knows how to look up recipes here and saw the pic you took. Thanks again for posting!
