Nothing says Spring better than Lime Soft Cookies. I think lime pairs perfectly with a sugar cookie because that cool citrus flavor adds that little something extra to the traditional sweetness of the cookie.

These lime soft cookies are light and buttery and full of lime flavor. You’ll have a hard time not eating the whole batch yourself. I love to make them for Spring parties and teas because they are light and little unusual.

The lime glaze is optional of course but I would definitely recommend adding it. This just gives the cookies that extra lime flavor and they just melt in your mouth. To really make them over-the-top you could use key limes, when in season.
