I am looking for a recipe-Lime Sugar Cookies from Dancing Deer Co.?!
Answers: They are so good, and I received them as a gift one year. Does anybody have the recipe or a recipe like it?
Try this:
Lime Sugar Cookies
2 cups (400g) sugar, divided
zest of 2 large limes
1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 ? cups (385g) flour
? teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
Prepare lemon sugar: In a mini food processor, blend ? cup (100g) sugar with 1 teaspoon lime zest. Pulse several times until the zest is incorporated into the sugar. Put sugar mixture in a shallow bowl and stir lightly with a fork to break up any clumps. Set aside.
Prepare cookie dough: In a medium bowl, sift together flour, salt, cream of tartar and baking soda. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and remaining 1 ? cups (300g) sugar. Blend in eggs, one at a time then add vanilla, lime juice, and remaining lime zest. Add flour mixture, one cup at a time, blending well after each addition, until all flour is incorporated.
Refrigerate dough for one hour.
Preheat oven to 175oC/350oF and line 2 baking sheets with waxed or baking paper.
Shape the cookies: Shape one tablespoonful* of dough into a ball and roll in lime sugar. Place ball of dough on cookie sheet and press down lightly with the bottom of a glass until cookie is about 1.25cm (? in) thick (mine were thinner) – it might help to press the glass first in the sugar then onto the dough, then it won’t stick. Repeat.
Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes at 175oC/350oF – I baked mine for 14 minutes.
Makes: 55 large cookies
No sorry if i did i would give it to you
I used Martha Stewart's recipe and it was very similar to the one posted here and it was very good. They are thin cookies very light and yummy. The lime zest is the key. My family ate them up... big time.
