Tips & Tricks (5)

Zest Maximization 🍋
Always zest your limes before juicing to ensure you capture the most intense citrus flavor possible for your cookies.
Cake Mix Magic 🥣
Sift your golden cake mix before mixing to eliminate any clumps and create a smoother, more consistent cookie dough texture.
Chill for Control 🧊
Refrigerate the cookie dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading and maintain a more compact cookie shape.
Lime Juice Balance 💦
Use fresh lime juice instead of bottled for a brighter, more authentic key lime flavor that truly makes these cookies pop.
Powdered Sugar Dust 🍬
Dust cooled cookies with additional powdered sugar to enhance the visual appeal and add a subtle extra sweetness.
