Tried to make gingerbread men or persons to be more politically correct. Made larger close 6" ones for the GF's nieces and nephews.
While baking cookies and old friend I used to shoot with stopped. He had lost his wife 4 years ago and is lonely, they went and did everything together. He started reminiscing about some kind of pineapple cookies she used to make and all the kids loved them, he would buy them every time he saw them only to be disappointed and would throw them out. He explained what they looked like and I asked a couple of friends I know that bake for people what they were and got a recipe and tried my hand at them. He loved them, said they had more filling than his Wife's and some were a little thick on the cookie part but they were very good. Must have ate 10 of them just standing there, took a bunch with him also.
The second pic on the pineapple ones need to be dusted with powdered sugar yet to finish them.
I am not a baker and as you can see not very artistic, and the filled cookies got the same treatment everything I try to stuff gets, over filled.
