Pineapple Coconut Cookies
Recipe Idea: Pineapple Coconut Cookies
Today is National Pineapple Upside Down Cake Day. But since I already posted my recipe (actually three different ones, one made with Gingerbread), I am telling you about my Pineapple Coconut Cookies instead.
I made these Pineapple Coconut Cookies awhile ago and I froze most of them. I pull a couple out of the freezer whenever I need a quick dessert. These Pineapple Coconut Cookies thaw quickly and are terrific.
I modified my original Pineapple Drop Cookies, removing the nuts and nutmeg and adding coconut. Since I am allergic to milk, I substituted coconut oil for the butter so these cookies are vegan. They are very tasty and I like them even better than the original recipe. I'd love to hear what you think about them, please comment!
I love these Rachael Ray Cookie Sheets. Don't you?
And you'll need some Cooling Racks like these. They stack or come apart and lay flat to store.
