Cooking Steps

Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Measure 200g butter and set aside at room temperature to soften. Weigh 30g cocoa powder. Weigh 300g basic sponge mix. Roughly chop the macadamias. TIP: Weigh out your ingredients before you start as we've sent a bit extra cocoa powder and basic sponge mix!

In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar with electric beaters until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Add the egg and beat until well combined, 1 minute.

To the bowl, add the measured sponge mix and cocoa powder. On low speed, beat until the dough comes together, 1-2 minutes. Stir in the macadamias until just combined. TIP: Just beat until the dough comes together, overbeating can cause the cookies to become tough.

Roll tablespoonfuls of the dough into balls. You should get 15-20 cookies. Place the balls on the lined oven trays, allowing room for spreading. Bake for 14-16 minutes or until just firm to touch. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

While the cookies are cooling, heat a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Toast the shredded coconut, tossing, until golden, 2-3 minutes. Place the white chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a heatproof bowl. Microwave in 20 second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth and melted.
