Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter at room temperature

2 cups (8.5 ounces) flour
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon lime zest (about 5 limes)

Yield Makes 6 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
3/4 teaspoon fresh, coarsely ground black pepper (optional)
Pinch of salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup finely grated lemon zest
2 large egg yolks

Steps:

  • 1. Whisk the flour, cornmeal, black pepper, if using, and salt together in a medium bowl.

  • 4. At least 25 minutes before baking, position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter 2 large nonstick baking sheets.
  • 5. Cut each log into 1/4-inch-thick rounds and arrange the rounds 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake, 1 sheet at a time, for 10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and let cool.

BLACK PEPPER BUTTER COOKIES



Black Pepper Butter Cookies image

These are my absolute favorite cookies. A friend in college had received a huge tin of homemade cookies from her mother and a version of these cookies were inside, along with many other types of cookies. I had never heard of black pepper cookies before and loved the unique flavor-sweet & buttery, with a slight kick from the pepper. I searched for years to find the recipe and finally found it in a Watkins spices cookbook several years ago. I make these every year for the holidays and everyone always wants to know the secret of my "vanilla flecked" butter cookies. Update: Eggs sizes seem to be shrinking, so depending upon the size of the eggs in your area, you may need to use an XL egg rather than a large. Regarding the pepper: fresh ground will produce huge grains of pepper and make things far too peppery and savory tasting. Please use finely ground pre-ground black pepper in this recipe, carefully measured using a measuring spoon and leveled off.

Time 26m

Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup sweet unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
extra sugar, for dipping glass

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients (except for the extra sugar for dipping the glass) together well using a heavy duty mixer.
  • Roll into 1/2 inch size balls-you will need three large ungreased cookie sheets, 16 balls per sheet.
  • Use the flat base of a drinking glass that has been dipped into sugar to flatten each dough ball on the cookie sheets.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 F (or 180 C) oven for 8-11 minutes or until lighly browned on the edges- do not overbake.
  • Remove to wire racks to cool.

Tips for Making Lime and Black Pepper Cookies:

  • Use fresh limes: The zest of fresh limes provides the best flavor for these cookies. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature: Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving: The cookies will be very soft when they first come out of the oven. Let them cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

Conclusion:

These lime and black pepper cookies are a unique and flavorful treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The combination of lime and black pepper gives these cookies a unique flavor that is sure to please everyone. So next time you are looking for a new cookie recipe to try, give these lime and black pepper cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
