Sift flour, measure, and sift again with salt. Set aside. In a large
bowl, cream butter, then add granulated sugar and cream again until
thoroughly blended. Add vanilla. Gradually beat sifted flour into creamed
mixture until smooth. Mix in coconut and macadamia nuts. Shape dough into a
roll 1 1/2 inches in diameter and wrap in clear plastic wrap. Refrigerate
at least 6 hours or overnight.
Slice roll at 1/4-inch intervals and place rounds on greased baking
sheet. Bake at 300 degrees for 20 minutes. Sift confectioners' sugar onto
waxed paper, reserving about 1/3 cup, and transfer baked cookies to it.
Sift tops lightly with remaining sugar. Let cool completely before storing
in cookie tins. Makes about 3 1/2 dozen.
