- Sift some powdered sugar on a cutting board (just a dusting- enough so dough won't stick when you roll it out). Gather a ball of dough the size of a walnut and roll on the cutting board into a circular shape. Sprinkle more powdered sugar as needed so the dought does not stick.
- Place a small spoonful (approx. 2 teaspoons) of pineapple preserves in the middle of the circle. Either roll the dough up or fold over and seal the edges.
- Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes (until the cookies begin to lightly brown on the bottom and edges.).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and 1 1/2 cups light-brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg and vanilla. Beat until fully combined. Add dry ingredients, and beat on low speed until combined.
- Drop batter in rounded teaspoons onto ungreased baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake until firm and barely golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes, then transfer cookies from pan to wire rack.
- In a small saucepan, combine remaining 1 cup light-brown sugar and cream. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Add confectioners' sugar, and whisk until smooth. (If frosting thickens, thin with cream.) Add pecan pieces. Place cookies on a cooling rack over a lined baking pan. Spoon about 1/2 teaspoon praline mixture onto each cookie.
Tips:
- Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor. If you're using canned pineapple, be sure to drain it well.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape.
Conclusion:
Aunt Mary's Pineapple Drop Cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their sweet and tangy flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
