Ingredients

• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.25 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon lime zest
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup additional powdered sugar (for coating)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup powdered sugar, cornstarch, lime zest, and salt. Set aside.

Step 2

In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy and smooth, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Gradually beat in the lime juice and vanilla extract until combined.

Step 4

Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in small increments, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.

Step 5

Divide the dough into two equal portions. Wrap each portion in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour, or until firm.

Step 6

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 7

Remove one portion of dough from the refrigerator. Roll it into small balls about 1 inch in diameter and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced 1 inch apart.

Step 8

Bake cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Once cooled, place the additional 0.5 cup powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Roll each cookie in the powdered sugar to coat them evenly.

Step 10

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or share them as a delightful homemade gift!
