Gluten-Free White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

(from glutenfreeT’s recipe box)

This is Tate’s Bake Shop’s third largest selling cookie flavor. This cookie is thin and crisp and a bit sweeter than most because of the white chocolate. Look for a high quality white chocolate chip that contains cocoa butter.
