Ingredients:
115g (3/4 cup) plain flour
100g (3/4 cup) dry roasted macadamias, chopped

3. While the butter mixture is cooling, add the flour, chopped macadamia nuts, rolled oats, sugar and coconut in a large bowl. Combine until well mixed.
4. Add the cooled butter mixture to the dry ingredients and combine with a wooden spoon until well mixed.
