Description

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons butter, softened
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
• 2 Tablespoons lime juice
• 4 teaspoons lime zest
• 1-1/4 cups flour
• 3/4 cups shredded sweetened coconut

Directions

• Cream the butter and sugar together in a medium bowl. Add the almond extract, lime juice and zest. Continue beating while adding flour and coconut.
• Using your hands, roll dough out on a floured piece of wax paper into an 18-20 log. Wrap tightly with paper and place in refrigerator to chill for at least one hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare cookie sheets by lining with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
• Remove dough from refrigerator and roll in colored sugar. (I’ve used red & green and they’re both pretty for the season). Cut into 1/4 thick slices and place on cookie sheets 2 apart.
• Bake 15 minutes or until golden. Cool cookies on cookie sheets for 5 minutes then gently remove to wire racks. Cool completely and store in airtight cookie tin.
