Tropical Pineapple Bars: The South Seas In A Cookie

These pineapple bars are loaded with all things tropical. Close your eyes and take a bite. Then imagine you’re on a south seas cruise! This is why they are a good snack for the winter.

These bar cookies are a tad on the sweet side since they use candied pineapple, but if you want more of a “bite” to them, substitute dehydrated pineapple for the candied.

The flavors blend very well together and the thing that ties it all together are the macadamia nuts. They get slightly toasted when they bake and are just magnificent. I used macadamias that had no seasoning or salt, but if you cannot find natural nuts, the ones with the bit of salt will do just fine.

    I love the tropical flavors. We make a Piña Colada biscotti — this reminds me of it.
