Cashews: Crescent-shape cashews go well with chocolate, and offer homemade cookies a rich, buttery flavor. When your cookie recipe calls for cashews, choose roasted ones unless directed otherwise.

Sometimes nuts can be substituted for one another. Use your own judgment based on what flavors people like and which nuts have similar textures.

Here are some swaps to try.

Almonds and pistachios

Almonds and hazelnuts

Pecan, macadamia nuts, and cashews
