Lime-Glazed Cookies image

To keep these cookies flaky and light, do not overmix the butter and sugars; they should be combined but not be too soft when you add the remaining ingredients.

Time 1h30m

Yield Makes: 32

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons grated lime zest, (2 medium limes)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
5 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon grated lime zest

Steps:

  • With an electric mixer, cream butter and sugars until light, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Add lime zest, lime juice, and salt; beat until combined. Add flour; beat until dough is just combined.
  • Place dough on a 16-by-12-inch piece of parchment or wax paper. Using your hands, shape into an 8-inch log; flatten into a rectangle (1 1/2 inches high and 2 1/2 inches wide). Fold paper over log; flatten sides against work surface. Refrigerate dough until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment. Slice dough crosswise 1/4 inch thick; place on sheets. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until cookies are puffed and barely golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool; glaze.
  • To make Lime Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients until spreadable. Using back of a small spoon, spread about 1/2 teaspoon glaze on each cooled cookie.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I also found the lime flavor to be a bit overpowering. I would probably not make these cookies again.
