How To Make pineapple macadamia cookies

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Step 2
    In a large bowl, mix cake mix and baking powder together. In a small bowl, mix eggs, oil and vanilla. Stir into cake mix to form a dough until all dry pockets are mixed. Gently mix in nuts, coconut and chips.
  • Step 3
    Form a round ball with 2 tablespoons dough. Place on cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. You will only be able to get 6 cookies on each sheet. Bake 10 minutes, do not let cookies get brown. Cool on cookie sheet 3 minutes before transfering to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Step 4
    Store in airtight container for up to one week.
