    Pineapple Coconut Cookies

    by Kathy Owen · Jul 5, 2025 · Updated: Jul 5, 2025 · "As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases"

    I made these Pineapple Coconut Cookies a while ago and froze most of them. I pull a couple out of the freezer whenever I need a quick dessert. They thaw quickly and make a great snack.

    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!

    For baking cookies, I love these Rachael Ray Cookie Sheets. And you'll need some Cooling Racks like these. They stack or come apart and lay flat to store.
