KEY LIME BUTTER COOKIES



Key Lime Butter Cookies image

I love limes so much that if a recipe calls for lemons I almost always use limes instead. With their pretty green color, these are perfect for Christmas-you can also make them as sandwich cookies and use lime curd for the filling.-Deirdre Cox, Kansas City, Missouri
