Chewy Coconut Oatmeal Cookies With Macadamia Nuts and White Chocolate Chips

Another cookie recipe that caught my attention because the word “chewy” was in the title and made with all coconut oil. They were sweet, chewy and delicious but a bit boring so I added macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips to make them more elegant and interesting.
