Dried Pineapple Recipe: Pineapple, white chocolate and macadamia cookies
People sometimes ask us for ideas of how to use their yummy dried pineapple chunks. Not only is dried pineapple a healthy and tasty snack but a very versatile ingredient for cooking too!
Our lovely client Annlynn shared this easy bake-at-home recipe with us, and we loved it so much, we wanted to share it with you too!
PREP TIME: 45 mins
COOK TIME: 10-12 mins
YIELDS: 24 cookies
INGREDIENTS:
- 125g salted butter
- 200g brown sugar
- 50g caster sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 225g plain flour
- 75g self-raising flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 200g white chocolate chips
- 100g salted macadamia nuts, chopped
- 100g Gin Gin & Dry Pineapple chunks, chopped
INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy[TBDC1] .
Step 2. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
Step 3. Sift and stir in the flours, baking soda and salt.
Step 4. Mix in the white chocolate chips, macadamia nuts and chopped pineapple.
Step 5. Put the mixture in the fridge for 30 minutes so it is easier to roll.
Step 6. Roll the cookie dough into 1 inch balls and flatten slightly.
Step 7. Bake at 180 degrees (fan-forced convection) for 10 -12minutes until slightly golden. Check after 10 minutes and if already somewhat golden, take them out! When they are cooled down, they will be crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside and just perfect.
