this recipe turned out well, after reading the reviews i used shortening instead of butter, reduced the amount to 1/3 cup. also doubled the flower, increased vanilla, and doubled the baking soda, just be sure to make your cookies SMALL and maybe you won't have the running together problem i keep seeing.

If I could give this recipe ZERO STARS, I would. We followed this recipe to a "T", except we added walnuts instead of macadamia nuts. The cookies turned out a flat, runny mess. Carmelized on the bottom, but still runny in the center. All of the cookies ran together to make a flat pancake that resembled chunky vomit. I do NOT approve.

I wish I would have read the reviews before mixing and baking. The first batch I added a dash of almond in addition to the vanilla. And then I added shredded coconut to the mix but everything else was as called for. So when they spread into one huge cookie with piles of chips here and there, I thought it was my fault for adding the coconut and almond extract. So the remaining mix I added more flour and put back in the oven and THEN came and read the reviews. The taste is amazing, however, they didn't turn out to be cookies, only maybe an ice cream topping. But I agree with everyone else, it's got to be a typo.
