Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup butter, softened
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup shortening
• 0.5 cup white sugar
• 0.75 cup packed light brown sugar
• 0.75 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup orange juice
• 0.75 cup flaked coconut
• 0.5 cup chopped dried mango
• 0.5 cup chopped dried cranberries

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Step 2

Simmer orange juice and mango in a small pan over medium-low heat for 8 minutes. Set aside. Beat the butter, shortening, brown sugar, and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Mix the flour mixture into the butter mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the macadamia nuts, coconut, cranberries, and mango; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Drop spoonfuls of the dough 2 inches apart onto greased baking sheets.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
