homemade pineapple tarts

sometime around this time of the year (nearing chinese new year), my house will filled with the delicious smell of freshly baked cookies - pineapple cookies! i am not a great fan of them but mummy/suparni bakes lots of them to giveaway. in the past, we use ready-made pineapple filling bought from red man but those are very pasty like, not too nice. this time, suparni made the pineapple paste from scratch - it took like many pineapples & six hours of boiling over charcoal to get it done.
anyway, here's some pictures the cookies. i prefer those shaped like pineapples to those open top ones - they are more tedious to make.
