Lime and Lavender Cookies

 

12 tablespoons butter, softened to room temperature

3/4 cup of sugar

1 tablespoon of lavender

1 tablespoon of grated lime zest

1 egg

1/3 tablespoon of vanilla extract

2 1/4 cups of unbleached all-purpose flour

 

In a mixer, cream the butter and sugar together until

the mixture is light and fluffy. Stir in the lavender

and lime zest. Add egg, vanilla and mix until

everything is well combined. With your mixer,

gradually add the flour until it is well combined. Put

the dough together and wrap it in plastic wrap and

refrigerate for at least one hour.

Roll out dough about 1/4 inch thick, cut into shapes,

and bake in pre-heated 350 degree oven until the

cookies just begin to brown around the edges, about 12

to 14 minutes.
