Lime Goodness

If you subscribe to Martha, then a particularly inspiring issue is en route to your mailbox. I love baking and I love cookies and this issue is packed with wonderful ideas. I used to be way more into Martha than I currently am but I do have to say, her ability to inspire people into action is wonderful. I am a big fan of projects, hobbies and creativity in general and Martha embodies all of these things.

Anyway, a couple of years ago I found the recipe for these lime meltaways and they are perfection. Buttery, powdered sugar and lime. They are great with diet coke (or milk). And they are easy to make.

Lime Meltaways

So when the recipe for these came I was excited to try it and since key limes are like 20 for $1 I jumped on board. Well mine turned out not as pretty as these (Steve said I shouldn't even try to compare myself because Martha probably takes a whole day to make cookies) but they were yummy. The recipe has you make way too much filling so half it but they might be worth a shot. I think I am going to continue using the meltaways for my christmas cookie plates though

Thanks for these. Key lime quickly became my favorite flavor after I quit eating chocolate 20+ years ago. These look way tasty.
