Steps:
- Cream together the butter and the sugar.
- Add the egg, one tablespoon of the lemon juice, one tablespoon of the lime juice, the lemon zest, 1 tablespoon of lime zest, and vanilla. Mix together.
- Add the baking powder, baking soda, salt, and flour. Combine until all ingredients are well mixed.
- Using a small ice cream scoop, place equal amounts evenly spaced on a baking sheet that has been lined with a Silpat pad or parchment paper. The dough is quite wet and sticky, so a spring-form ice cream scoop is highly recommended.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
- Allow to cool on the baking sheets for five minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
- Once completely cooled, prepare the icing by whisking together 1 1/2 cups of confectioners' sugar with 1 tablespoon each of lemon juice and lime juice.
- Depending on the consistency of the prepared icing, you might need to add a little more juice or sugar to obtain a silky smooth icing.
- Drizzle the icing onto the cooled cookies. Sprinkle the remaining lime zest over top before icing hardens.
- Allow the icing to completely set and harden before packaging or storing the cookies.
