I absolutely love macadamia nuts on keto. I also am a huge fan of macadamia nut cookies. Instead of trying to produce a cookie with macadamia nuts in it, I decided to try to make a cookie out of macadamia nuts. This recipe for a keto macadamia nut cookies is like nothing you've ever tasted before, but it is fantastic. These cookies are so high in fat, that I consider them to be a fat bomb!

Let's Do This!
Preheat your oven to 325F.
Using a food processor, puree the macadamia nuts into a smooth paste. Macadamia nuts are all different. If a paste with the texture peanut butter does not form, add a little bit of water or heavy cream to thin it out. I've only had to do this once.
Add all remaining ingredients to the food processor.
Pulse until a dough forms.
On a baking sheet line with parchment paper, portion the dough into 6 even dollops. You can garnish them with a macadamia nut if you want.
Bake for 16-18 minutes.
Let rest for 20 minutes for touching them.
Enjoy!
A "pink" of pink salt? I assume it's a "pinch". ...proofreading is a good habit.😀
