Resep Kue Nastar Pineapple Cookies
Instructions
Mix 1 cup sugar, the shortening, eggs and vanilla. Stir in flour, salt and baking soda. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Prepare Filling.
Drain pineapple well, reserving 1/2 cup syrup. Mix 2/3 cup sugar and 3 tablespoons flour in saucepan. Stir in pineapple, reserved syrup, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon margarine, and dash of nutmeg. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Cool pineapple filling completely.
Heat oven to 400. Roll dough about 1/16-inch thick on a floured surface. Cut into 3-inch rounds or squares. Spoon about 1 teaspoon filling onto one side of each circle leaving enough of an edge to seal. Fold dough over filling; pinch edges to seal. Place cookies about 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Brush with milk and sprinkle with sugar.
Bake until lightly browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Immediately remove from baking sheet. Makes about 4 1/2 dozen pineapple cookies.
*If using self-rising flour, omit salt and baking soda.
