As most of the rest of the world, I am in love with Pinterest! What a great place for ideas, recipes, etc. So I came across "Coconut Lime Sugar Cookies" which I have been obsessed with lately because Coconut Lime is going to be a new fragrance for my Mizz Kim's products very soon! (Be sure and stay tuned for that)
Anyway, I tried to find a good recipe and I did find one at http://www.twopeasandtheirpod.com/chewy-lime-and-coconut-sugar-cookie-recipe/. So I made them, but in the future I would tweak them a bit by adding more lime zest and lime juice. I like mine with a bit more zing! I have laid it all out for you below. Enjoy because I can't. I am currently on a diet! (Heavy sigh here) But I did have only one!!!
Recipe
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Zest of one large lime ( I didn't have a large one so I used two small ones)
3 tbsp lime juice ( I would go with 4 tbsp)
½ cup toasted coconut
1/2 cup sugar for rolling cookies
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Zest of one large lime ( I didn't have a large one so I used two small ones)
3 tbsp lime juice ( I would go with 4 tbsp)
½ cup toasted coconut
1/2 cup sugar for rolling cookies
directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or Silpats.
Gather all of your ingredients:
Toast your coconut by placing it on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 5-8 minutes at 350 degrees. Tossing a couple of times. Remove from oven when coconut is light brown.
Finished toasted Coconut
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
Using a mixer, beat together the butter and sugar until smooth and very fluffy.
Using a microplane or fine zester, zest your lime(s)
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, lime juice and lime zest.
Mix until well combined.

Gradually add in the dry ingredients and toasted coconut.

Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of cookie dough into balls.
Put sugar in a small bowl and roll cookie dough balls in the sugar.
The dough will seem a little sticky when you first roll it, but

The dough will seem a little sticky when you first roll it, but
once you put it in the sugar it will be easier.
Place on lined cookie sheets about 1 1/2 inches apart.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. My oven took 11-12 minutes
so just keep your eye on them. The cookies will start to crack a little bit.

Let stand on cookie sheet two minutes. Move cookies to a cooling rack.
