Difficult to scoop dough, and nail down time and temp. Not enough flavor.

AMAZING COOKIE! It starts off sweet and almost like a sugar cookie and then...POW! Your taste buds are drenched in tangy lime flavor! I followed the dough recipe exactly and used a cookie scoop, spraying it with non-stick spray every 4-5 scoops. I baked on Parchment instead of greased pans. As other reviewers mentioned the dough is wet, and the finished product does not brown on top. I followed the advice of one reviewer and placed warm cookies in a zip-top bag with appx 1 cup powdered sugar. They coated very nicely with just gentle shaking. These are very cakey and moist, so be gentle! EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT! I wish I could give 6 starts!

Everyone loved them! I too added white chocolate chips & then drizzled a cream cheese icing flavored w/ Nelly & Joe's key lime juice. Simply amazing!

Different and tangy. I followed the advice of those who chilled it and did add white chocolate chips and every one loved it. Absolutely a keeper.

This recipe is pretty good! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it is not a super decadent cookie. It's quite refreshing though. I live in Florida where I can buy nice fresh key lime juice which really helped this cookie. I did however use fresh lime zest in place of dried lime zest. I also took the cookies out at 9 minutes before they got a chance to brown. I prefer my cookies on the chewy side. These cookies go great with a nice seasonal summer beer!! Great to bring to a bbq or cookout. I will be making these again. Maybe next time I will add some key lime cream cheese frosting in between them and make a sandwich cookie!

A good and different cookie. I really wanted to taste the lime so I added a little extra juice (a few T) and zest and they were super lime-tastic! I tried squeezing out of a ziploc bag and those turned out the most uniform but the best overall was really just using a small ice cream scoop and then sifting powdered sugar over the top and then, I also sprinkled finely shredded coconut over them and baked. They were tasty; my only complaint is that they are a cakey cookie - I may try some amendments to make it a bit more crisp on the outside.

Super yummy! We only had one egg, so I skipped the extra yolk. We didn't have butter, so I used shortening - and they were still great! Thanks!

Something went wrong. I'm not sure what. There was no way this was rolling into anything resembling balls, despite following the recipe exactly. I glopped it on to the cookie sheet anyways and did my best to make it ball shaped. lol. They sort of flattened out, but even after 12 minutes, didn't really want to brown. Since I had extra lime juice left (wanna get the most out of your limes? try a potato ricer!), I used some it to make an icing, using confectioners sugar, green food coloring, and light corn syrup. They tasted ok, but I probably won't make them again.

This is a great summer cookie recipe. I used key lime juice (easier than squeezing those itty bitty limes!) and the taste was a nice combination of sweet and tart. Don't worry if the dough is "sticky." I didn't try to roll them into balls, but just dropped them onto the cookie sheet using a teaspoon. They shaped up nicely as they baked. These are nice, soft cookies that will travel to a 4th of July picnic tonight. Thanks!

These are really good. They remind me of a lemon bar (which I love). My husband made these because he was the one to buy the bag of key limes (I didn't want to squeeze 2 dozen limes to get enough juice!!) and he thought the recipe was easy and we both love the flavor. Yumm.

I added 1 12 oz. bag (2 cups) of white chocolate chips, and they made all the difference. The tastes are perfect this way, if you use key lime juice (I use Nellie & Joe's Famous Key Lime Juice, bottled). As other reviewers mentioned, the dough is "wet", so I used teaspoons to round and drop them. I made them slightly larger and baked for 15-17 minutes. They never really "brown" on top, so check the edges to make sure they don't burn.

Use key lime juice. For those who are having problems with stickiness, just use a cookie scoop (like a small ice cream scoop). That way the dough never has to touch your hands. Don't add more flour - that would diminish the flavor. This cookie is very cake-like, just so you know.

I added more flour til the dough looked a bit stiffer, chilled it for a bit, and worked as quickly as I could to form little balls. I used real lime juice, no zest, and they are have an amazing flavor. It's a delicate, elegant cookie that packs a lot of flavor--very unexpected for its appearance. Next time I would like to use it as a sandwich cookie--I think it would be fantastic with some whipped cream or if you are a die-hard key lime maniac, with some key lime mousse.

I added an extra 1/2 cup flour, and chilled dough for 1 hour. Still a sticky beast to handle, but I could roll small balls. Instead of greasing the cookie sheets, I used parchment paper (quick & easy!). They were plenty sweet enough, so I didn't decorate with additional confectioner's sugar. Excellent taste, slightly crisp fresh out of the oven, forms a cake-like soft cookie the next day. Next time I'll try adding more lime juice and zest.

SOOOO GOOD! This is my husbands favorite cookie that I bake, and I love how it is a "cake-like" texture. I noticed how others didn't like how "doughy" the batter is, but that's what makes this cookie so soft and delicious. I did tweak the recipe a bit by adding a bag of dark chocolate chips. Yum. I also take twice the amount of lime juice the recipe calls for and simmer it on the stove until it reduces to the amount called for in the recipe. This gives it more of a lime zing. Thanks so much for an amazing recipe.
