Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, beat butter and granulated sugar with electric mixer on medium speed 2 to 3 minutes or until light and creamy. Add flour, lime peel and orange peel. Beat on low speed until mixture is blended. Gather dough into a ball.
- On lightly floured surface, roll dough into 8x6-inch rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick. (If dough cracks around edges, press edges to smooth.) Cut into 12 (2-inch) squares, then cut each square diagonally in half into triangles. On ungreased cookie sheet, place triangles 1/2 inch apart.
- Bake 12 to 17 minutes or until edges just begin to brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
- In small bowl, mix powdered sugar and lime juice with spoon until smooth and thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle glaze over cookies.

[email protected]These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with less sugar. However, they were still very good and I enjoyed the citrus flavor. I would make them again, but I would reduce the amount of sugar.

[email protected]These cookies were very good, but I found them to be a bit too crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the dough. Next time, I'll be careful to mix it just until it comes together.
