Yay!  We are continuing with the A Few Short Cuts Cookie Swap 2010!  I am so excited!  We have had some great recipes shared this time around!  This is an oldie but a goodie!  I actually found this in a really old cookbook a while back and I was intrigued.  I had never heard of a pineapple cookie.  I had all the ingredients, so I gave it a whirl.

These are a really light cakey cookie with a great flavor.  They would definitely be a unique addition to a cookie tray or gift basket!  The best part.  They are super easy! :)

So, check out these Pineapple Drop Cookies, and if you have a cookie recipe you would like to share add it to the Cookie Swap Linky below the recipe, or leave a comment!

Cynthia,
I used Butter Flavored Crisco because my daughter is allergic to milk. It is what I can bake with so she can still enjoy the goodies! :)
