OLD-FASHIONED PINEAPPLE COOKIES
I saw this recipe on the web and thought it looked so good I had to try it immediately - so I did! The results were wonderful. Even my fiance (who swears he doesn't like pineapple) thought they were great. I found a couple of similar recipes on zaar, but not one exactly like this.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe bettes for the best flavor.
- If you don't have fresh bettes, you can use frozen or canned bettes, but fresh is always best.
- Be sure to drain the bettes well before using them, or the cookies will be too wet.
- If you don't have pineapple, you can use another type of fruit, such as applesauce, pearsauce, or bananas.
- Be sure to grease the cookie sheets well, or the cookies will stick.
- Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges, but still soft in the center.
- Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them.
- If you don't have cream cheese, you can use another type of frosting, such as buttercream or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
These bettes pineapple cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy, with a sweet and tangy flavor. The cream cheese frosting adds a rich and creamy flavor that complements the cookies perfectly. Whether you are a fan of bettes or pineapple, or just looking for a new cookie recipe to try, these bettes pineapple cookies are sure to please.
