   The following recipe is one that I've gone ape over!
   They are a very sweet and chewy cookie.  Also, this
   recipe makes a lot of cookies, somewhere near 40!

       Pineapple Cookies

   1 cup butter
   2 1/4 cups sugar
   1 egg
   1 can crushed Pineapple with Juice.  (about 20 oz can)
   3 1/2 cups flour
   1 teaspoon soda
   1/2 teaspoon salt

   Crean butter and sugar.
   Add other ingredients and mix well.
   Drop with teaspoon onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
   Preheat oven to 400.
   Bake 8 - 10 minutes.
   
   I made a mistake, it makes about 6 dozen cookies!

   For a variation add some nutmeg and chopped nuts.


    Frosting for the cookies.
     1/2 cup melted butter (browned?)
     3 cups powdered sugar
     1 teaspoon vanilla
     3 - 4 teaspoons hot water until easy to spread


  Enjoy!
