Steps:
- Put butter and 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Add lime zest and juice and vanilla, and mix until fluffy.
- Whisk together flour, cornstarch, and salt in a bowl. Add to butter mixture, and mix on low speed until just combined.
- Divide dough in half. Place each half on an 8-by-12-inch sheet of parchment paper. Roll in parchment to form a log 1 1/4 inches in diameter, pressing a ruler along edge of parchment at each turn to narrow log. Refrigerate logs until cold and firm, at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove parchment from logs; cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Space rounds 1 inch apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake cookies until barely golden, about 13 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool slightly, 8 to 10 minutes. While still warm, toss cookies with remaining 2/3 cup sugar in a resealable plastic bag. Cookies can be stored in airtight containers at room temperature up to 2 weeks.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325% and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium size mixing bowl add the cream cheese, butter, sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix well, add 2 Tablespoons of the Lime Jello and approx 2 Tablespoons of the lime juice, be sure there is about 1 Tablespoon of lime juice left for the glaze, adjust as needed.
- 2. Mix 1 cup of the all purpose flour and the finely ground pecans together. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients well. If dough seems too sticky, add a small amount of the remaining 1/4 cup of all purpose flour. Meltaway cookie dough is rather stiff and holds a ball shape.
- 3. Once the dough has been mixed you will cover the bowl with a piece of plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The chilled dough is easier to scoop onto your baking pan.
- 4. Using a small cookie scoop, scoop the dough to a flat even bottom and release from the scoop and place onto the baking sheet lined with parchment. These cookies do not spread while baking so they can be close together on the sheet. Place the pan into the preheated oven for 15 minutes. While the meltaways are baking mix 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1 Tablespoon of lime juice, 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon of the lime jello for color, set aside. When the meltaway cookies are done remove from oven and immediately begin to gently roll them into a bowl with the remaining 1 cup of powdered sugar. Once the cookies are cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top as desired, note, if glaze is a little thick, add a drop or two of water at a time to make it thin enough to drizzle.
LIME MELTAWAY SPRITZ COOKIES
just love these refreshing cookies, especially in the summer Sometimes I tint half of the dough light green and fill cookie shooter with green and white dough so cookie spritz is two toned.. It is nice to vary the flavor with lemon and change flavor ingredients accordingly..
