How to Make ~ Pineapple Nut Cookies ~
- Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Lightly grease baking sheet or line with parchment paper as I did.
Sift the dry ingredients together. Set aside.
Cream sugars and shortening, add egg and beat in well. Beat in vanilla and 1 cup pineapple.
Now add flour mixture beating well after each addition. Mix in the nuts. - I glaze while still warm, then go back and add a little more glaze later. You can use a simple confectioner's sugar glaze without the pineapple or a whipped frosting, such as cream cheese. I've made the cream cheese before and added some pineapple to it.
Freeze well. Keep in an air tight container.
Enjoy!
