Pina Colada Jumble Cookies: The Holidays are Coming!
Greetings! Let's use that sugar cookie mix for another wonderful treat! Pina Colada Jumbles are similar to the Spumoni Chunk Cookies, but they are a tropical holiday treat, chock full of pineapple bits, coconut and macadamia nuts along with vanilla and rum flavor. These are sure to be a favorite in your house. The best part is how simple they are to put together.
Simply mix together 1 pouch or 3 cups of sugar cookie mix with one egg and 1 stick of softened butter along with 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla and 1 teaspoon of rum extract or emulsion and blend well until a soft dough forms.
Add in 1 cup each of chopped macadamia nuts, shredded sweetened coconut and dried pineapple that has been coarsely chopped and incorporate into the dough.
Drop by tablespoonsful onto a lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 11 to 13 minutes until golden brown around the edges. Remove from oven and allow cookies to sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
If you desire, you can drizzle these with a little melted white chocolate for an over the top treat. You could even make a little powdered sugar glaze with some pineapple juice and dip the tops of the cookies for a nice frosted cookie.
I hope you try these and I hope you enjoy them. I hope this inspires you to create your own holiday treat using a simple sugar cookie mix.
As always, Happy Eating!

Greetings! I thought of this the other day and had to make it. I promise that this will be the last cocoa mix for this year. Even though I have about six more lurking in the back of my head! I'll save them for the next holiday season.
This one is simple and uses the building blocks that we have already established in the other mixes that we have made together. Powdered milk, chocolate instant pudding, creamer, cocoa, powdered sugar we are also adding malt powder and a pinch of salt for added flavor!
This one is easy to mix up and put in bags, boxes or jars for giving to your friends, neighbors, co workers or family for a fabulous warm winter gift.
I hope you will try this and I hope you will love it. Stay tuned because this weekend I plan to announce a special surprise for all my viewers!
Happy Holidays!
