Method
- Cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Beat in egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Take about 2 tablespoons of dough and form into a ball. Place on a baking sheet and flatten slightly. Place a well-drained pineapple ring on top of each biscuit. Add a candied cherry in the center, if desired.
- Lightly sprinkle granulated sugar over the top of each biscuit. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown. Watch carefully to avoid overbaking; the center should remain soft.
- Let biscuits cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve biscuits the same day, slightly warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Feel free to customize your biscuits! You can replace the pineapple with other fruits such as mango or papaya slices. You can also add chocolate chips or nuts to the dough for extra deliciousness. Let your creativity run wild!
