LIME- GLAZED TEA COOKIES



Lime- Glazed Tea Cookies image

Categories     Cookies     Tea     Side     Bake     Lime     Summer

Yield makes about 3 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons freshly grated lime zest
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
2/3 cup buttermilk
For the glaze
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper or spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Sift the flour, baking soda, and salt into a mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Beat the butter in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment at high speed until it is light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the sugar and lime zest and continue to mix on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula halfway through mixing to ensure that the butter, sugar, and zest are well mixed.
  • Add the eggs and mix until combined. Again, scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl to make sure that the ingredients are incorporated.
  • Add approximately half the flour mixture and mix on low speed just until the flour is incorporated, about 30 seconds. Add the lime juice and buttermilk and mix until combined, about 15 seconds.
  • Add the remaining flour and mix until combined, about 15 seconds. Remove the bowl from the mixer and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula to make sure that the flour is fully incorporated. Compared with other, drier cookie doughs, this dough has a more pasty consistency.
  • Using a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon measure, scoop the cookie dough about 1/2 inch apart onto the prepared pans. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, rotating the pans once halfway through, until the edges of the cookies are golden brown. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the pans to room temperature.
  • While the cookies are cooling, prepare the glaze. Sift the confectioners' sugar into a mixing bowl. Add the lime juice and buttermilk and mix with a fork until smooth.
  • Transfer the room-temperature cookies to a wire rack set over a sheet of parchment or waxed paper and spoon the glaze over them. Allow the glaze to set for 20 minutes.
  • Serve the cooled cookies immediately, or keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.

SWEET LIME ICED TEA



Sweet Lime Iced Tea image

During the Summer I make several gallons of this iced tea. I never thought adding lime juice to iced tea, could taste sooo good! It's a nice change from the sweetened lemon iced tea I usually make.

Provided by Cindi M Bauer

Categories     Other Drinks

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 cups boiling water
7 tea bags (l used orange pekoe & black)
3/4 cup sugar, plus 2-1/2 tablespoons of sugar
2 limes (plus half of one lime, see *note)

Steps:

  • 1. In a (2-quart) heat-proof glass pitcher, add the tea bags to it. (If the tea bags have strings attached, be sure to remove them first.)
  • 2. Pour boiling water over tea bags in the pitcher. Cover the pitcher, and allow tea to steep for 45 minutes. (I covered the pitcher with Saran Wrap.)
  • 3. After the has steeped for 45 minutes, remove tea bags from the pitcher, and discard them.
  • 4. To the pitcher, add the 3/4 cup of sugar, plus the 2-1/2 tablespoons of sugar; stir thoroughly to dissolve the sugar.
  • 5. Add the juice of 2 limes to the pitcher, and stir. (For more lime flavor, add the juice from half of a lime as well.)
  • 6. Let the tea cool to room temperature, then place tea in the refrigerator to chill.
  • 7. Pour chilled tea into glasses filled with ice. Serve tea immediately.
  • 8. *Note: For more lime flavor, add the juice of 2 and a 1/2 limes. Also, I usually double this recipe, and make the tea in a gallon size glass jar. Then I'll use 12 cups of boiling water, 14 tea bags, 1-1/2 cups of sugar, plus a 1/3 cup of sugar, and the juice of 4 limes (possibly 4-1/2 limes). This makes: 13-1/2 cups of tea (or) 105-ounces. One more thing I wanted to mention, if using a gallon size glass jar to make the tea, I'll cover the jar with an 8-1/2 inch glass dinner plate, while the tea is steeping.
