This is just something I dreamed up (I’m sure there is something similar out there) because I can not wait until everyday is warm & sunny.  I’d also love to go to Hawaii…that isn’t happening (at least anytime soon) so I brought some of the tastes of Hawaii to myself!  Enjoy!

What you need:

• 6 TBS butter
• 1/3 packed light brown sugar
• 1/4 C sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 TBS milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 C flour
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 C crushed pineapples
• 1/3 C chopped almonds
• 1/4 C finely chopped maraschino cherries
• 1 1/2-2 C sweetened coconuts

What to do:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Cream together the butter, brown sugar, & white sugar.
3. Add egg, milk, & vanilla.  Mix well.
4. In a separate bowl mix together the flour, baking soda, & salt.
5. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture & mix well.
6. Stir in the pineapple, almonds, & cherries.
7. Roll into 1- 1 1/2 inch balls & roll in the coconut.
8. Place on baking sheet & bake for 15-20 minutes.
