White chocolate and macadamia nuts – I. love. you. You’re pretty great each on your own, but heaven almighty when you’re together you make a rather stellar combination. I love your standard bakery-style chocolate chip cookie as much as the next gal, but I’ve always had a soft spot for the white chocolate macadamia variety. In fact I think it’s safe to say that a good portion of my freshman 15 (a conservative number, mind you) were owed to those white choc-mac cookies. I ate many a meal at the Subway on campus and when the cashier asks if you want to ask a soft freshly-baked cookie for 10 cents, you say um….. YES. I’ve tried the same cookies from other Subway locations and they just aren’t quite up to par. But if you ever find yourself near BYU in Provo Utah – get yourself a white choc-mac from their Subway. The softest, sweetest version I’ve ever tasted. So obviously what I’ve done here is transformed one of the best cookies known to man into an easy-to-make rich and chewy blondie. Cookies are wonderful, they are, but man I really really love bars. Brownies, blondies, bars bars bars for days I love em. White chocolate macadamia nut blondies are the new thing, I’m tellin’ ya. If you’ve jumped on board the sea salt bandwagon (and if you haven’t, what in the world are you waiting for?!) then please, I beg you, sprinkle a few of those little magic crystals right on top of these blondies, they just enhance the overall greatness here and you’re gonna thank me when it’s all said and done. Not let’s all take a bite of the greatest blondies known to man shall we? Ready, set…… Sorry, I jumped the gun.
