These sound decadent Sheryl. If I had to choose a favourite nut, it would probably be macadamias. We had a tree in our garden as a child. We called them Queensland nuts. I spent hours in the shed, placing the nuts in a little dip in the cement to steady them, I’d then smash them with dad’s hammer. Some would got flying off and I’d have to scurry after, then repeat. Straight from the tree they are creamy, crunchy and delicious beyond words. The taste of my childhood.
That is such a fabulous memory. I have seen photos of the trees, and the bundles of leathery looking pods. So cool that you had those in the garden.
I too love macadamias. I waffle between pistachios and macadamias as to which is the favourite. Macadamias feel quite posh as they are generally very costly.
We are nut sisters then Sheryl, as I literally had a struggle in writing macadamias were my favourite. Mind says “what about pistachios ?” You love them too.
I've taken to buying macadamia nuts and enjoying a few of them as a treat. They are high in fiber and an excellent source of manganese, plus monounsaturated fat. Not to mention they're delicious! So creamy and flavorful.

I used to get these at the mall, too! We considered these the “fancy” cookie because of the white chocolate and macadamia nuts, lol. Yum!
It was the only place to find them! And I still consider them fancy-schmancy !!!
Saving this one!!
