Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon rum extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup dried pineapple, finely chopped
- 0.75 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and rum extract until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Step 6
Gently fold in the chopped dried pineapple, shredded coconut, and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will firm up as they cool.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve your piña colada cookies with a cold glass of milk or enjoy them as a tropical-inspired dessert!
