Pineapple Tar Cookies

Ingredients:
2 fresh pineapples
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
4 sticks of butter  or 1 lb butter
7 cups all purpose flour
4 tablespoons corn starch

Method
Beat butter and sugar until smooth
Add eggs and beat until smooth
Use a spatula to mix corn starch and flour until blend
Do not over worked
Take a small amount of the batter and roll it flat on floured surface.
Use pineapple tart mould with a dent in the center to place the pineapple jam.
Bake in the oven at 350 degree F for about 15 mnutes.

To make the pineapple jam you need 1 or two fresh pineapples.
Remove the skin and cut the pineapple into 4 lengthwise.
Grate the pineapple.
Drain the access juice.

Note: I use the juice for my drink by adding diet soda and ice. It is refreshing.

In a Big pot, cook grated pineapple with 2 cups sugar.
Add a pinch of red coloring, 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, a pinch of ground nutmeg and 1 tablespoon ground cloves.
Cook on medium high heat until jam is thickened.
Keep stirring so crust did not formed at the bottom.
Cool the jam before use.
