Time 2h

Yield About 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon grated Key lime zest, plus 3 tablespoons Key lime juice (or use regular lime zest and 1 1/2 tablespoons each lemon and lime juice)
4 drops green food coloring
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 tablespoons green sanding sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the lime zest and juice, then beat in the food coloring. Reduce the mixer speed to low; gradually add the flour mixture, beating until just combined. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 45 minutes.
  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Combine the confectioners' sugar and sanding sugar in a small bowl. Roll tablespoonfuls of dough into balls and toss in the sugar mixture to coat completely. Arrange the cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are puffed and cracked on top and golden around the edges, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.

LEMON LIME COOKIES

This is a cookie recipe I got from my mother's cookie book. You can also use the same recipe to make orange cookies by substituting 2 tbs of grated orange peel for the lemon and lime peels and 1/4 cup orange juice for lemon and lime juices in the dough. Substitute 1 tsp grated orange peel for the lime peel and about 2tbs orange juice for the lemon juice and water in the frosting.
