Macadamia Nut Clusters
1 cup milk chocolate chips ( 6 ounces )
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips ( 6 ounces )
11 ounces white chocolate chips (such as Ghirardelli Classic White
Chips)
18 ounces unsalted macadamia nuts (roasted or raw)
Melt the milk chocolate chips, semisweet chocolate chips and white chips
in a double boiler over barely simmering water. Stir vigorously after
chocolate starts to melt (chocolate should be just warm enough to melt,
but not hot). Remove top pan from double boiler and allow to rest for 2
minutes. Stir in the macadamia nuts.
Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls onto wax paper, leaving space between
clusters. (Use 2 teaspoons, one to scoop and the other to push it from
the bowl of the spoon.) Allow to cool at room temperature. Makes about
38 clusters.
