Pineapple Drop Cookies

"These cookies are so soft and yummy!  I love when my Mom makes them and recently I made them for the first time.  They are so easy to make but so hard to stop eating!"

3-3/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup or 1 stick butter, softened

1-1/2 cups sugar

2 beaten eggs

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 (1 pound 4 ounce) can of crushed pineapple, un-drained

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.  In a mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar (mixture will be crumbly).  Mix in eggs, lemon juice and pineapple until smooth.  Stir in flour mixture a little at a time until all combined.  Drop by heaping Tablespoons onto non-stick or Sil-pat lined cookie sheets and bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes (the edges of the cookies will be slightly golden brown).  Cool on cookie sheets for five minutes and then place on cooling racks to cool completely.  Store cookies in air-tight container to keep soft.  Makes about 3 dozen yummy cookies.
