Devil's Food Cake White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

I do want to note the odd color of these cookies. They have a reddish brown tint to them, which to some may not be desirable. If your not scared of a reddish brown cookie, try these and your mouth will thank you. they stay soft and rich days after you make them.

Don't let the long name scare you. These cookies are amazingly easy to whip together and are so good you will be going back for more *gasp*. I know, summer is almost here and everyone is getting lean and mean and ready for summer, or at least trying to, but sometimes you just have to give in to temptation. And oh boy, are these so worth falling off the diet wagon. Pour yourself a cup of milk and sit down for a wonderful treat.
I modified this recipe from the original found on Allrecipes by using devil's food Jell-o Pudding, white chocolate chips, and macadamia nuts.

2 1/4 Cups Flour
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 lb Butter, or 2 sticks
3/4 cup Brown Sugar
1/4 cup White Sugar
1 pkg Devil's Food Instand Pudding mix
2 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
1/2 Cup Macadamia Nuts, chopped
1 1/2 Cups White Chocolate Chips

Cream Butter, brown sugar, and white sugar. Mix in pudding; Add eggs one at a time, add vanilla and mix till combined. In a separate bowl, combine flour and baking soda. Add flour mixture to cookie dough until combined. Mix in nuts and chocolate chips. Batter will be thick.
Drop by *spoonfulls onto parchment or Silpad lined cookie sheets. Bake at 350* for 10 minutes. They will get a little firmer as they cool.

*Use a small or medium spring loaded cookie scoop to make it go faster.

Yields approx 60 small cookies or 30 large cookies
