Tips:

  • Use fresh or canned pineapple: Canned pineapple can be a convenient ingredient, but if you have access to fresh pineapple, it will give your cookies a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be golden brown around the edges and slightly soft in the center. If you overbake them, they will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool. If you store them before they are completely cool, they may break.

Conclusion:

Pineapple tea cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and they can be customized to your liking. Whether you prefer them plain, with nuts, or with a glaze, pineapple tea cookies are sure to be a hit.
