Instructions

1 Cream the butter and sugar, then add the rest of the cookie ingredients and mix
well. It will be a thick dough. Roll the dough into small balls, the place on a
cookie sheet. Use a glass to flatten the cookies, then bake at 350 degrees for
10-12 minutes, or until the tops start to crack. Edges could be slightly
browned, but they won't necessarily be. Let cool completely before frosting.
2 To make the frosting, beat the butter, lime juice, lime zest, and dash of salt
until creamy, then add the powdered sugar and mix well. Add the milk a little at
a time until you get a smooth and creamy consistency. Frost cooled cookies, and
sprinkle with lime zest.
