Tips:
- Use fresh lemons and limes. Fresh citrus fruits have a brighter, more intense flavor than bottled juice or concentrate.
- Zest the lemons and limes before juicing them. The zest contains essential oils that will give your cookies a more pronounced citrus flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
These lemon-lime cookie crisps are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are light and airy, with a bright citrus flavor. The cookies are also gluten-free and dairy-free, making them a great option for people with dietary restrictions.
