I've done a dir/tit=maca but did not find any notes dedicated to
Macadamia nuts.
I received a variety pack of the nuts for Christmas. Some are plain,
some salted. Has anyone used them? How do they do in place of walnuts
etc. I was thinking of putting them in a date-nut or cranberry-orange
nut bread.
Any suggestions, pointers appreciated.

Macadamia (and cashew) nuts are great for filling chocolate truffles.
You can also roll the chocolates in chopped nuts too.
Try them in cookies, especially chocolate chip or in your next brownie
recipe. Delicious!

These nuts are so good plain I wouldn't do anything with them, just eat
'em. But if you must cook them in something, try white chocolate chips
and macadamias in place of reg. chocolate chips and walnuts in
Tollhouse cookies. Delicious!
