My all time favorite cookies in the world are these gems right here. I created this recipe to include all the things I loved: nuts, coconut, and white chocolate. Yes, white chocolate macadamia nut cookies are good, but these cookies have the little something that those are always missing (in my opinion). These cookies are…

Mini Key Lime Pies with Graham-Macadamia Crust
The perfect summer treat is one that doesn’t require the oven, that’s cool and refreshing, that’s light, and that’s easy to make. Well this is it. These mini no-bake key lime pies are insanely creamy, bursting with lime flavor, and they’re the perfect portion size. Tired of sharing your desserts? With this pie, you won’t…

Pina Colada Cupcakes
I needed the perfect summer treat for a pool party I was planning; something light, tropical, and delicious. I’ve baked plenty of coconut cupcakes, but I wanted something more. I researched 20+ pina colada cupcake recipes, but none of them had everything that I wanted. I was looking for something with rum, vanilla, and citrus…
