Steps:

  • Make Classic Sugar Cookies with lime zest instead of orange. Whisk 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons green decorating sugar and 3 tablespoons lime juice, then spread over finished cookies.

Tips:

  • To make the cookies extra festive, decorate them with green and red sprinkles or drizzle them with melted white chocolate and sprinkle with crushed candy canes.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • You can also make these cookies ahead of time. Simply bake them according to the recipe and then store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • If you don't have any lime extract, you can substitute lemon extract or vanilla extract.
  • These cookies are also delicious when made with other citrus fruits, such as oranges or grapefruit.

Conclusion:

These Holiday Lime Cooler Cookies are the perfect holiday treat. They're easy to make, delicious, and festive. They're also a great way to use up any leftover limeade or Sprite. So next time you're looking for a holiday cookie recipe, give these a try. You won't be disappointed!
