An aunt and I baked a similar cookie often when I was growing up. Through the years, I added the macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips. My family and co-workers rave about these.

White chocolate nut crackles turn out so well, my family simply loves them. We make them whenever we have all the ingredients and usually freeze some, as we end up with a LOT of cookies. They're so good though, and so easy to make, they're a keeper for sure and going in my recipe box.
