INGREDIENTS

  • Cookies

    • 🧈 1 ½ cups butter, room temperature
    • 🧂 2 ½ cups white sugar
    • 🥚 4 eggs
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 🌾 5 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
    • 🧂 2 teaspoons baking powder
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon salt

  • Icing

    • 🍋 2 teaspoons lime juice
    • 🥛 1 tablespoon milk
    • 🧂 2 ½ cups confectioners' sugar
    • 3 drops green food color

STEPS

1

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until well blended. Cover or wrap dough, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or freeze for half an hour if in a hurry.

2

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch in thickness. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.

3

Bake for 7 to 8 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

4

For the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat the lime juice, milk, confectioners' sugar and green food color until smooth and creamy. Add more milk or sugar if necessary to achieve a good spreading consistency.

5

Once cookies are completely cool, spread icing between cookies to make sandwiches.
