1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
2/3 cup vegetable shortening or butter, melted
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple with juice (undrained)
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.Set aside two baking sheets. Place the
flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl and stir to
combine. Make a well in the center. Melt the shortening or butter and pour
it into the well. Add the pineapple and juice, eggs, and vanilla. Beat
with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 to 2 minutes or until the eggs
are well combined. The dough will be wet. Drop the batter by teaspoonfuls
onto the baking sheetsand bake until they set and begin to brown, 8
minutes. Remove the pans from the oven, and remove the cookies to a wire
rack to cool. Frost with frosting, dust with confectioners' sugar, or
