Candied Pineapple White Chocolate Cookies

Teresa Ambra

Christmas Cookie Extravaganza – 2021

These Oatmeal Cookies rock! Candied Pineapple White Chocolate Cookies include bits of candied pineapple along with real white chocolate chips (NOT vanilla chips or premiere white baking chips). The flavor is delightful and the cookies are soft and chewy in texture rather than hard, crunchy or crisp. I found them so delectable I didn’t want to stop eating them. 🙁

Follow Me On Instagram!

Paradise Fruit Company sent me a large box of all kinds of assorted candied fruit. I tried to make a different recipe with every different kind of fruit. Some kinds I made multiple recipes because there was a lot of fruit! I used the Candied Pineapple up in this recipe and a cake called Christmas Cream Cheese Pound Cake. Both recipes turned out fantastic and were well loved by those I sent them off to. We sampled a little bit but, after all, we couldn’t eat everything we made or we’d both way over 500 pounds. 🙂

Candied Pineapple White Chocolate Cookies are marvelous for holiday baking, tailgating parties or Christmas Cookie Exchanges. You can certainly serve these cookies for Thanksgiving or Christmas Dinner or even New Year’s Eve gatherings too. If you enjoy eating cookies as much as I do, none of these cookies will go to waste. Every one will be gobbled up before you blink your eyes!

    The candied pineapple cookies look delicious, and I can’t wait to try them, but the bloody band-aid covered finger in the photo is NOT appetizing in the least!
