Directions:

  1. Place macadamia nuts and sugar in a four-quart saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the sugar melts and begins to rechrystallize and the nuts become white and coated with sugar, about 12 minutes. Transfer the nuts to a baking sheet, and set aside until cool enough to handle. Separate the nuts and let cool completey.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler or a heat-proof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Using a fork, dip the sugared nuts in the melted chocolate, coating completely. Place on a lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until chocolate has set.
  3. Sift confectioners' sugar over a baking pan. Roll nuts in sugar. Transfer the sugar and the nuts to an airtight container and store in a cool, dry place for up to a week.
