Steps:
- For the cookies: Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a food processor, pulse together the butter, sugar, and lime zest until combined. Add the egg, lime juice, and vanilla. Process until smooth. Add the rice flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Process until the mixture forms a dough. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead for 20 seconds. Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly flour a work surface. Cut the dough in half and roll out each piece into a 9-inch diameter circle, about 1/4-inch thick. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut the dough into 10 circles and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Gather any scraps of dough, knead together, and roll out to 1/4-inch thick. Cut out 2 additional rounds of dough and place on the baking sheet. Bake until light golden around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes and transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes.
- For the glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lime zest, and lemon juice until smooth. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the glaze onto each cookie leaving, a 1/4-inch border around the edge. Allow the glaze to harden for about 45 minutes before serving.
LIME CORNMEAL GLAZED COOKIES
Inspired by Southwestern and Italian desserts, these cookies combine zesty lime and crunchy cornmeal. This unusual and not-too-sweet cookie is a nice alternative for the holiday season. For a different flavor, lemons may be substituted for the limes.

Steps:
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add egg; beat until just blended. Add citrus zests, lime juice, and almond extract.
- With the mixer on low speed, add flour and cornmeal. Continue beating until well blended. Transfer dough to a piece of plastic wrap. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap, and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with Silpats or parchment paper. Fill a small bowl with cornmeal. Using a 1 1/4-inch ice-cream scoop, form balls from chilled dough. Place balls on prepared sheets, spaced about 3 inches apart. Dip bottom of a medium drinking glass into cornmeal. Flatten balls with the bottom of glass until dough is about 1/4 inch thick.
- Bake cookies until crisp and light-golden brown around the edges, 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer baking sheets to a wire rack, and let the cookies cool completely.
- Place a wire rack on top of a piece of parchment paper. Pour the lime glaze over the cooled cookies, allowing the excess to drip off the edges. Let glaze set. Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

CORNMEAL LIME SHORTBREAD FANS
Buttery and crisp, with an appealing texture from the cornmeal, these shortbread cookies are baked in a round tart or pie tin, then cut into wedges to resemble slim fans. The lime juice in the glaze cuts the sweetness and echoes the zest in the dough. (You can also use lemon, orange or grapefruit - or a combination instead of lime, if you prefer.) The cookies keep for up to two weeks when stored airtight at room temperature, and freeze very well.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grate 1 teaspoon zest from the limes. (You can usually get 1 teaspoon from 1 lime, but you may need to grate some zest off the other.) Add to a food processor.
- Add flour, cornmeal, sugar and salt and pulse once or twice to combine. Add butter and pulse until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Pulse a few more times until some of the crumbs start to come together, but don't overprocess the dough. It should be somewhat crumbly and not form a ball. (Alternatively, you can mix this in a bowl using two knives, or use a pastry cutter to mix the butter into the flour.)
- Press the dough into an even layer in an ungreased, fluted 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom or in a 9-inch pie pan. Prick the dough all over with a fork. Bake until golden brown, about 40 to 50 minutes.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Using a butter knife, cut the shortbread into 12 wedges while still warm.
- Make the glaze: Halve the zested lime and squeeze 1 tablespoon juice into a small bowl. Whisk in confectioners' sugar and, if you like, more lime juice to taste. (More lime juice will make the glaze thinner and more tart, while less lime juice yields a thicker, sweeter glaze.) Drizzle glaze over the cooled shortbread, then zest the second lime over the icing before it sets. (Use a citrus zester, if you have one, or a regular zester, if you don't.)

To keep these cookies flaky and light, do not overmix the butter and sugars; they should be combined but not be too soft when you add the remaining ingredients.

LIME SANDWICH COOKIES
For our two-bite take on Brazilian "lemonade" (basically a creamy limeade), swirl a dollop of tangy citrus filling between two tender sugar cookies -- and let it shine through the cutest of cutouts. For a photo-worthy finish, use a teardrop aspic cutter to create the just-sliced look -- or simply sift some powdered sugar over the tops.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and place a rack in the center of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or in a large bowl using a wooden spoon or hand mixer, beat the butter, sugar, lime, and vanilla on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes (at least 10 minutes if mixing by hand). Stop the mixer and use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides, the bottom, and the paddle itself a few times during the mixing process; the sugar and butter love to collect there and stay unmixed. Add the eggs and beat on medium speed until thoroughly combined, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the bowl and the paddle to make sure the eggs are thoroughly incorporated.
- In a small bowl, mix together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. With the mixer on low speed (or using a wooden spoon if mixing by hand), add the flour mixture in three or four additions and mix until the flour is completely incorporated and the dough is uniform.
- Using a large spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop the dough in scant ¼-cup balls onto the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Flatten the dough with the palm of your hand into discs about 2 inches in diameter. (Pro tip: Dip your palm in flour or water to prevent it from sticking to the dough.) Bake until the cookies are pale brown on the edges, still pale in the center, and just firm to the touch in the center, 20 to 24 minutes. Be careful not to overbake or let the tops brown.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 15 to 20 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool to room temperature.
- While the cookies are baking make the creamy lime filling.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat the butter on low speed for about 30 seconds. Add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, lime zest, lime juice, and salt and beat until smooth. The mixture will look like spackle and feel about the same. (You can also mix this together by hand. Make sure the butter is very soft and use your hands to mix and knead the confectioners' sugar into the butter. Add a few drops of water if need to loosen up the dough.) The filling can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Bring to room temperature before using.
- When the cookies are entirely cool, turn over half of them so the flat side faces up. Spoon about 1 rounded tablespoon of the filling onto the center of each turned-over cookie and top with the other half of the cookies. Press down until the filling comes out to the edge of the cookie. The cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 weeks.
