1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread macadamia nuts on a baking sheet.
2. 2
   Bake nuts in the preheated oven until lightly toasted, 7 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
3. 3
   Place nuts in a blender or food processor; process until finely ground. Add butter and cognac. Process until just combined. Do not overmix, or the butter will heat up and separate.
4. 4
   Form macadamia nut butter into a log or pack into a crock. Store covered in the refrigerator until serving.
