2 cups flour
1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup quick-cooking or old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup confectioners sugar

Preheat the oven to 375. In a large bowl, beat the flour, butter, oats, sugar, and vanilla until a dough forms. Stir in the nuts; mix well.

Roll into 1 inch balls and place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until light golden on the bottom. Transfer to wire racks and allow to cool for 10 minutes before rolling in the confectioners sugar, coating completely. About 4 dozen cookies
