Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients:

  • 1 roll (16.5 oz) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 12 maraschino cherries
  • 1/2 cup crushed pineapple, well-drained

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with silicone liners.
  2. Prepare the base: Mix melted butter and brown sugar. Spoon mixture into each muffin cup. Add a cherry in the center and pineapple around it.
  3. Layer the cookies: Slice cookie dough, flatten pieces, and place over the pineapple in each cup.
  4. Bake: Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown. Cool, then invert onto a rack.

Notes

  • Make sure the pineapple is well-drained to prevent sogginess.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon to the brown sugar mixture or use a splash of pineapple juice in the glaze.
