- 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
- 1 cup finely chopped macadamia nuts
- 2 tablespoons lime zest

- Beat first 4 ingredients at medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.
- Stir together flour and next 2 ingredients; gradually add to butter mixture, beating just until blended after each addition. Stir in coconut, chopped macadamia nuts, and lime zest.
- Shape dough into 4 logs (about 2 inches in diameter); wrap each log in plastic wrap. Chill 8 hours to 3 days.
