Love lime. Putting in my cookie folder. ^5


Yum... I'm definitely bookmarking this one. I used to love those yummy Sunshine brand ones that came in a box.


This cookie sounds delicious! I'd dip them in some dark chocolate. Lime and chocolate is such a great flavor! I'll be making your cookie recipe this year for my gift baskets. In fact, I just might make some today! Thank you for the new recipe!


These sound fantastic. Great post and a high 5.


Oh I love lime! And I also used to love those Sunshine cookies too! Can't wait to make these - Thanks!!
