  1. Baking cookies with a recipe similar to Shortbread but with the addition of Macadamia nuts and White Chocolate, whilst nibbling on the macadamia nuts, is my favourite way to use Macadamia nuts. I love them!

  2. I just like to eat them as they are ,so natural & healthy but have been known to crush them over a salad for a tasty alternative.

  3. I make this cake with Cream around it crush the macadamias nuts and put around it and put tin hole peach halves and tin black cherries on top …A winner every time

  4. Sensational, luscious, tantalising to the lips
    Hedgehog Slice with delicious macadamia bits.
    Succulent chocolate drizzled on top
    That decadent crunch, the ultimate delight.

    With left over chocolate you dip the nuts,
    Smothered in smooth chocolate, a luxurious taste.
    Or chopped up macadamias – a morning treat,
    Added to your muesli, a culinary retreat.

  5. my favourite use for macadamias are in my own chocolate recipe, chai and nut chocolate bar, made with special chai mix,carob powder,almond milk and macadamia nuts.

  6. I love Macadamia Nut Oil, drizzled over a salad. It is delish as a dressing. Plus Macadamia Nut Oil has so many health benefits.

  7. My favourite breakfast is a banana, a cup of spearmint tea, and a small handful of macadamias. It is soothing, destressing, and fills me up until lunchtime.

  8. Apart from my Chocolate Macadamia Nut Torte I love to use them to make macadamia butter! All you do is combine crushed macadamia nuts with butter or oil. I prefer butter but it also has added health benefits if you combine it with olive oil – olive oil solidifies in the fridge. This butter is so versatile you can use it on dry biscuits, such as saladas, or even a sandwich, but can also be used to prepare frostings for cakes, glazes for various types of desserts, and even as an ingredient in recipes.

  9. Nothing fancy as they are fantastic as they are but every morning I start off with a handful in my cereal. A great start to my day.

  10. I use macadamia nuts in place of peanuts… crushed on top of ice-cream, in biscuit recipes and I even make my own macadamia nut butter instead of peanut butter… the kids devour it. And I go NUTS for chocolate-coated macadamias!

  11. OMG…yummo.
    fresh straight outta the shell…
    you cant beat them not even with a stick…
    cause you have to use a hammer to open these little rippers!!! 😀 <3

  12. My favourite use for macadamias is my favourite hummas dip with a twist Zucchini and Macadamia Hummus it has a fresh and nutty taste with that hint of sweet from the macadamias

  13. My favourite use for macadamias……..filling my mouth with wonderfully yummy goodness and then chewing them up and filling my belly. 😉 They never hang around long enough to make it to cooking.

  14. I love to eat macadamias naturally as it is and also when its used as an ice cream topping 🙂

  15. Years ago I found the most delicious fruit cake recipe in the Woman’s Weekly from Lindy Milan. The top is covered in macadamia nuts. The cake is already delicious, the macadamias make it extra special. I made 8 as gifts last Christmas and they were a real hit.
    That is one of my favourite ways to use the very yummy macadamia nut.

  16. I mix coffee and ground Macadamias together and soak sponge biscuits in them, layer it with custard, cover it with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate bits. Only to be consumed when no diet freaks are around.

  17. Well…If you are lucky enough to have a nut cracker and buy Macadamia’s in the shell then the shells have a wonderful use of their own. They are brilliant to use in gardens in place of wood chips or pebbles and they look amazing. Recycling at its best.

  18. I love to cook Jamie Oliver’s fig tart using fresh figs from our tree and using macadamias for the frangipane… topped with roughly chopped macadamias… yum!

  19. Macadamias in brownies, soft, gooey and crunchy all at the same time! And macadamia oil on my face for a relaxing cleanse!

  20. Mashing them up and using the paste as a healthy spread on sandwiches and toast instead of butter of margarine.

  21. My favourite use of macadamias – Is to gobble them up!

  27. I love to make Macadamia Bread as a Christmas present for family and myself as well because it’s so yummy 🙂

  28. Uses for macadamia? For eating of course. Straight-up. No time for baking or cooking plus macadamias are plenty delicious on their own!

  29. I crush macadamia nuts and rub them into my skin. The palmitoleic acid softens my skin and doesn’t irritate it like some cosmetics do!

  30. Coating them in chocolate – delicious! The only problem is they have to be hidden under the lettuce so hubby doesn’t find them 🙂

  31. My late Grandma loved macadamia nuts dipped in chocolate and gift wrapped in dainty boxes for family and friends. She used to bring them from Hawaii in the 1980s when they weren’t so readily available here in NSW.

    Then she started bringing them from QLD and enjoyed them later in life when they started stocking them in the supermarket.

    Everytime I see a macadamia nut, I think of my Grandma and her smiling while she ate them. She passed away on Easter Sunday 2012.

    Thanks guys for the memories, it’s kinda like she wants me to think of the happy times xxx

  32. After reading all the health benefits of macadamias last year, I now only use Macadamia Oil for all my cooking (ie everything frying, roasting & baking!) Yummo!!!

  33. Adriene beat me to it!
    Why try to improve perfection?… Macadamias are best eaten fresh and neat. In large quantities!

  38. Macadamia muffins. Delightful home baked goodies in under an hour, and if the kids werent home I would eat them all myself!!! They are delicious.

  39. Love making toffee or fudge with chopped up macadamia nuts through out it. I like the pieces big and chunky so you really get a good bite of nut! Great smashed up and put over icecream (when you get unexpected guests for dinner – and want to impress) or when you want to treat yourself for….. well…. just being you!

  43. I use macadamias in Indonesan-style cooking as replacement for (sometimes difficult to find) candlenuts.

    They’re essential ingredients for making gado2 (cooked vegetable salad with peanut sauce), opor ayam (white chicken curry), and many other Indonesian dishes.

  44. Macadamias in freshly baked chocolate/chocolate chip cookies are a match made in taste bud Heaven.

  46. I make the yummiest macadamia and salted caramel ice cream! The crunch of the macadamia and the smooth caramel makes a delicious combination!

  47. They are one of Nature’s gifts to us – I LOVE them straight out of the shell which I crack with a hammer. A bit of effort but SO worth it. Am glad I am a QLD child – readily accessible and enjoyable to us from the lucky state.

  48. I love them fresh, straight of the tree…..
    Queensland Nuts….you cant beat them …not even with a stick!!!
    cause they are too hard you gotta use a hammer..lol..:D

  49. I think the best use for macadamias is in their purest form, so I use macadamias to make macadamia butter!

  50. My favourite use is tricking the family, I ask them if they would like to have ‘Macas’ for dinner when I am planning to use macadamias in the dinner, and they think I mean Macdonalds, they always fall for it!

  51. Plain roasted Macadamia’s to bring out their natural flavour and to nibble on whilst watching one of my favourite movies – Moonstruck 🙂

  52. Natural….and simply every other way you can imagine, in cakes, cookies, sprinkled on a crumble, on cereal, in a stir fry, the list is endless

    •1 teaspoon vanilla

    •1 cup chopped raw macadamia nuts

  56. Crush and mix with fresh herbs and a little oil and place on salmon fillets and bake in the oven.YUMMY! and so healthy.

  57. I just made Nigella Lawson’s Nutella Cheesecake with macadamia nuts, everyone loved it and wanted the recipe.

  58. I often make Macadamia Praline usually to complement a dessert such as baked cheesecake or semifreddo, but sometimes just to nibble on by itself!

  59. When macadamias are in season i buy them in bulk and use them in everything, my favourite is to crush them up and make a healthy crumbly topping for sweet potato bake.

  60. Macadamias are, to my taste buds, the most versatile of nuts. No other nut can take you from a glorious rocket pesto (excellent on bruschetta) to a luscious caramel pie. And there is no more superior nut to cookie than the macadamia, superb in the white chocolate variation.

  61. Roasting them and using them in a butterscotch toffee cream cake, They make the crunch and smokiness come out amazingly.

  62. I love to use these golden gods of the nuts for crusting an amazing chicken breast into a world class meal for any queen….

    I’d say “I’m a happy camper’
    and I’d smile like a sunbeam

  67. I love macadamias in any form but facing macadamia ice cream I’m turning into some gluttonous creature

  68. I recently tried a sweet and salty toffeed macadamia recipe for my daughters birthday party and it was a hit. Everyone loved it and there was none leftover.

  69. Would love to win this competition as it will provide me with hours of enjoyment and my husband doesn’t like macadamias so I can have it all to myself.

  70. I loveeee apple crumble A LOT. My favourite thing to do is to add chopped macademias to the crumble topping and it gives it a boost in flavour. It truly is amazing!

  71. Macadamias in cooking, like biscuits and such,
    But I love to eat them raw, just as much.
    In and on top of a cake,
    For goodness sake,
    Nothing pleases me as much.

  72. I like to toss them in a wok with a little sesame oil, boo choy, snow peas and bean shoots – its an Asian delight.
