NASTAR

Nastar, also known as Pineapple Cookies, are a delicious and popular Indonesian sweet treat. These bite-sized cookies are made from a buttery, crumbly dough that is filled with a sweet and tangy pineapple jam.

The dough is made with a combination of flour, butter, egg yolks, and sugar, which gives it a rich and buttery flavor. The pineapple jam is made by simmering fresh pineapple with sugar and spices until it becomes thick and jam-like in consistency.

Once the dough and jam are prepared, the dough is rolled into small balls and then flattened slightly. A small amount of pineapple jam is then placed in the center of each ball, and the dough is carefully folded over to encase the jam. The cookies are then baked until they are golden brown and lightly crisp.

Nastar is a popular snack during festive occasions such as Eid al-Fitr, Christmas, and Chinese New Year. These cookies are perfect for sharing with family and friends, and are sure to satisfy anyone's sweet tooth.
