Cornmeal Lime Cookies
Here’s something a little different for your platter of Christmas sweets. Cornmeal gives these light cookies crunch, and the tart lime glaze tops them off perfectly.—Wendy Rusch, Fall Creek, Wisconsin

I love these cookies. A freshing change from everything thing else on the cookie plate. They're not too sweet and the lime flavor just pops when you bite into one. A keeper for sure.
Tasty cookie! I didn't put lime juice in glaze, but it still had a great taste. Cookie good anytime, not just at Christmas!
I subbed in lemon juice and lemon zest for the lime and these were absolutely delicious. I made them for Thanksgiving day, but my family liked them so much they kept eating them before the holiday!
