Hello, every birdie. Another day, another lime recipe. SO MANY LIMES. And honestly, I know that sounds like I am complaining, but I really am not. These limes were free and we got them from local food distribution. So I couldn’t be happier that I am able to use limes. I think this is one of the first times I have been almost exclusively working with limes.
Today’s recipe comes from another cookbook that I got from a library book sale. This cookbook is called “Company’s Coming- Most Love cookies. “ And the recipe is titled Lime Cringles.
The recipe and the measurements will be in the description down below. Feel free to check it out. The ingredients that you will are:
- Margarine (or butter) softened (leave it out at room temperature for about 30 minutes or less if it is a warmer day).
- Brown sugar
- Granulated sugar
- Egg
- lime/lemon juice
- lime/lemon zest
- Flour
- Baking powder
- Baking soda
- Granulated sugar (for topping)
Once we get all of our ingredients around we are going to preheat our oven, or convection oven (which is what I used) to 350. And the recipe says to have ungreased pans. However, as some of you know, I like spraying and lining my pans with baking spray and parchment paper. To save tears.
In a large bowl, you are going to cream together your margarine/butter, brown sugar, and the first amount of granulated sugar. Add in your egg. Then you are going to add your lemon/lime juice and the zest. Make sure to beat it until smooth.
In a medium bowl, you are going to mix together your dry ingredients. Which includes the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Add this mixture to the margarine mixture, in 2 additions. Mix well after each addition until no flour remains.
Roll into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the second amount of granulated sugar.
Arrange the cookies about 2 inches apart, on your prepared cookie sheet.
If you are using a regular oven bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden. I was using the convection oven because of the high heat. And so I baked these cookies for 7 to 8 minutes. I was able to bake 5 cookies at a time. It did take a little bit longer, however, it didn’t heat up the house.
These cookies were so good. They weren’t burnt and they weren’t too soft. They were the perfect consistency of cookies. I am so happy that I have been able to work with limes, because limes, where I am, are really expensive. And the idea that I have a lot of them, makes me happy.
I hope that you liked this recipe. Feel free to check it out for yourself. See you in the next recipe. Thank you.
