Ingredients

48 servings

•

2 cups butter flavored shortening
•

1 ½ cups packed brown sugar
•

1 ½ cups white sugar
•

4 eggs
•

4 teaspoons vanilla extract
•

4 ½ cups all-purpose flour

•

2 teaspoons baking soda
•

1 teaspoon salt
•

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
•

1 cup flaked coconut
•

1 cup chopped macadamia nuts

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large bowl, cream together the butter flavored shortening, brown sugar and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Finally, fold in the chocolate chips, coconut and macadamia nuts. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place them 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy! - they will be chewy. If you like them crispy, increase the cooking time to about 12 minutes. (My mom loves them burnt!)
