1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons dark rum
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups salted macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
In a mixer bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time. Add vanilla and rum. Combine flour and baking powder. Add to butter mixture; mix well. Stir in nuts. Divide dough into two equal portions.
On well-floured surface, shape each portion into a log approximately 1 1/2 inches in diameter and 12 inches long. Place on large greased baking sheet. Bake at 325 F oven about 30 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool. Reduce oven heat to 250 F. Cut logs diagonally into 1/2 inch slices. Arrange slices, cut side down, on a baking sheet; bake 20-25 minutes or until dried and crisp. Let cool. Store in airtight container. Makes 48.
