Great recipe! I did; however, make a few changes. Since I did not have crushed pineapples, I pureed a cup of chunky pineapples and added an additonal 1/2 cup of flour. Cranberries were substituted for raisins. Since other reviewers described the cookies as being cake like, I baked the batter in mini and regular muffin pans. Because my husband is a big fan of coconut, I added 1/2 cup of sweetened coconut flakes to the second half the batter. They were moist and delicious!!!!

I tried this recipe with a couple of changes. I used dried cranberries instead of raisins and macadamai nuts instead of walnuts. They were so good and a huge hit at the office. I had to cook them a couple of minutes longer.

I couldn't put the nuts in because of allergies. I spread in a cake plate (9X13) and baked for 45 minutes. It made the best bars!! I didn't have time for cookies but this sounded like it would work for a bar...and was wonderful!! Thanks for shareing.

I didn't realize the cookie would be so "cakey". They are actually quite addictive, though they weren't what I expected.

These were such a dissapointment. I stayed true to the recipe and the cookies were not what I was looking for.

I made these cookies for a bunch of wrestlers and they loved them. They are really good and moist.

These were good~~~very soft cookie. I used white sugar in lieu of brown. I used crushed pineapple that was unsweetened, perhaps sweeten would be better? My only complaint is perhaps they were not sweet enough...

DO NOT make huge cookies! The cookies spread out too much and were still very very gooey after baking. Also, do not add more pineapple than the recipe calls for or else the cookies will be too wet. Over all, very, very tasty. I will make these again.

I had forgotten that my mother had made these every so often when I was growing up. I was delighted to find this recipe. It's really a very basic cookie recipe. Delicious little gems. Make small cookies and don't overbake, they should be nice and moist. They don't spread out and flatten like chocolate chip cookies. They stay pretty much mounded up.
