500 Pineapple filling

- Beat butter, sugar, icing sugar & vanilla for 2 to 3 mins.
- Add in egg yolks till well mix.
- Add in sifted flour & milk powder by using a spatular. (do not overmix)

As requested by my son, as he only like the skin but not pineapple filling, some I wrapped the filling with chocolate chips and made the popular sheep design cookies via facebook.
