Instructions
- Preheat oven to 175 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
- In a mixing bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the lime zest, lime juice, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all purpose flour, baking powder, and fine salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Roll the dough into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 5 cm apart.
- Flatten each ball gently with the bottom of a glass or your palm to form cookie shapes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips
- Use fresh lime zest for the best flavor.
- Do not overmix the dough to keep cookies tender.
- Chill dough for 15 minutes if it feels too soft before baking.
