Or it can also be called Pear-shaped cookies. At least I tried to make it look pear-shaped. ;p I wonder if there is a secret to quick shaping because it made my hands tired after the first batch. I am going to try out another recipe using the piping method so that it'd save my hands extra work. If there's an easier way, i'll take it. hehe.
It's been a year since I made pineapple tarts and hence, i had a little difficulty remembering what i did before. After reading my old Pineapple tart post, i decided to use the same filling method but a different dough for the cookies.

Ingredients:

(makes about 70, each is 1 Tablespoon big)

Pineapple filling (refer to old post)

butter, 320g

icing sugar, 140g

flour, 600g

egg,2

custard powder, 60g

soymilk powder, 15g

egg yolk, 2, for brushing

cloves, for decoration ( about 70)
Direction:

1. Sift flour, custard powder, soymilk powder together

2. Beat butter, icing sugar, egg in mixer well.

3. Pour (1) in to mix well.

4. Divide dough into small balls. Wrap each with ball of pineapple filling and form into pear shape. Arrange on baking tray. Brush with egg yolk and decorate with clove. Bake at 350 for 12 mins.
