Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 F; set oven rack in top third of oven. Beat together butter, sugar, salt and baking powder in a medium mixing bowl, until well blended. Beat in lime juice, zest, and egg. Blend in the flour thoroughly (dough will be rather stiff). If using macadamia nuts, incorporate now. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a greased or parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 16 minutes. Remove from oven. Cool on the pan for a few minutes. While still slightly warm, roll in powdered sugar. Allow cookies to cool completely on wire rack, then coat with sugar again.
KEY LIME COOLERS
These tangy cookies are a favorite of mine. Light and tangy. Great when served with Sherbet as a light, company pleasing dessert. A little green coloring may be added but don't get them too green ! They pack well and look great on a cookie tray. Something different and not heavy or too rich. Pretty to look at too !

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh key limes. If you can't find key limes, you can substitute regular limes, but the flavor will be slightly different.
- To make the coolers ahead of time, simply mix all of the ingredients except the sparkling water and refrigerate for up to 2 hours. When you're ready to serve, add the sparkling water and stir.
- Garnish the coolers with lime slices or wedges, and serve with straws.
- For a non-alcoholic version of the coolers, omit the rum.
- If you want to make a larger batch of coolers, simply double or triple the recipe.

These key lime coolers are the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer day. They're also a great way to use up any extra key limes you may have on hand. With their refreshing flavor and beautiful presentation, these coolers are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
