Pineapple tarts

My grandma showed me how she makes her famous Pineapple tarts and OMG they’re a lot of work.

After kneading the dough to the right silkiness and chopping it to the right size, we then had to fill them with the pineapple mixture and roll them into shape.

Now that was the easy part. The rest of the afternoon was spent cutting each and every tart to make them look like pineapples.
One spike at a time.

Try doing that 92 times.

We eventually finished what seemed like a mountain of dough and here’s how they turned out:

Took a couple of hours to make them. I was so sick of cutting the spikes!
Next time we make them I’ll bring em over.
