- Chill the dough: Refrigerating the dough for about 30 minutes before baking helps the cookies maintain their shape.
- Use high-quality vanilla extract: Enhances the flavor of the shortbreads, providing a richer taste.
- Toast the macadamia nuts lightly: Toasting brings out the natural oils and makes the nuts even crunchier.
- Finely chop the dark chocolate: Smaller pieces integrate better into the dough, ensuring you get a bit of chocolate in every bite.
