Cowgirl Cookies image

These cookies are reminiscent of a white chunk macadamia nut cookie but better. Using slivered almonds instead of macadamia nuts is a more economical alternative. Follow baking directions. The cookies can be a little tricky to get right on the first pan. Unless the oven is preheated, they might not turn out. Note that these cookies don't bake well on airbake pans.

Yield 54

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ½ cups margarine, softened
¾ cup white sugar
2 ¼ cups packed brown sugar
3 eggs

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substitute sunflower seeds in these cookies. They're just as delicious!

I've made these cookies several times now and they always turn out perfect. They're chewy and gooey on the inside, and crispy on the outside.
