PINEAPPLE MACAROON BARS
I was looking for pina colada bars without rum, and couldn't find exactly what I wanted: a bar cookie that had 3 layers: cookie, pineapple, and coconut. So I found two recipes and combined them to make what I wanted. (They are Cherry Pineapple Bars and Cherry Macaroon Bars.) I omitted the cherries (marashino - yuck!), and already reduced the sugar to half, since most recipes have too much sugar. It was just right. You may want to adjust to your taste.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Stir together flour, brown sugar and salt; then cut in the butter - either with two knives or a pastry cutter. (Don't let the butter get too warm.).
- Once the flour/butter mixture gets crumbly, pour it into a 9" x 13" pan and press it inches.
- Bake for 15 minutes, then remove pan from oven and let it cool some.
- In the mean time, combine 1/2 cup sugar and cornstarch in a pot.
- Add pineapple and egg yolks and stir.
- Cook and stir over medium heat until the mixture gets thick and boils slightly.
- Remove from heat and spread on top of the baked crust.
- If you're a multi-tasker, you may be able to work on the coconut mixture in between stirs of the pineapple sauce. Otherwise, do it after.
- In a medium bowl, combine coconut, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, flour and salt.
- Add the egg whites, egg and vanilla extract. (You could substitute almond extract).
- Drop dallops of the coconut mixture and spread evenly over the pineapple mixture.
- Return pan to the oven and bake an additional 30 to 35 minutes, or until lightly browned on top of coconut.
- Cool in pan, then cut into bars. (I couldn't wait, and ended up burning my mouth on the pineapple mixture.).
- Store in a covered container.

Steps:
- For the pineapple filling: Puree the pineapple in a food processor and transfer to a medium skillet along with the sugar and 1/4 cup water. Heat over medium-low and bring to a low simmer. Use a rubber spatula to stir and move the mixture around as it reduces and thickens to the consistency of very thick jam, 18 to 20 minutes (you should have about a heaping 1/2 cup). Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Let cool completely in the skillet. The pineapple filling can be made and refrigerated up to 2 days in advance.
- Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and coat lightly with nonstick spray.
- For the macaroons: Whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until frothy. Toss the coconut, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla and 1/4 teaspoon salt together with your hands in another large bowl. Add the coconut mixture to the egg whites and combine with your hands; the mixture should pack together tightly when squeezed. Divide the mixture into 24 slightly heaping tablespoons and roll each into a smooth ball (slightly wet hands can help with rolling). Hold a ball in the palm of your hand and use your thumb to make a slight indentation in the middle. Reshape the edges of the macaroon back into a round if it cracks. Arrange about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, rotating the tray as needed for even browning, 20 to 24 minutes. Let cool completely on the tray.
- Set up a cooling rack over a baking sheet. Combine the chocolate and butter in a small bowl and microwave for 30 seconds; stir. Repeat until all of the chocolate is melted and smooth. Dip the bottom of each macaroon into the chocolate and press into the chocolate about halfway up the macaroon. Use a fork to help lift it out of the chocolate. Transfer to the cooling rack and allow to sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens and sets up, about 20 minutes.
- Fill each macaroon with about 1 teaspoon of the pineapple filling. Store and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
