    Just made under 200 of these (only 2 batches for a cookie exchange. They were so delicious that they won the cookie tasting contest!! The first batch I did not use all of the egg mixture and those turned out a bit better I think.

    Unique flavor combo unlike any other cookies I've had. I baked for an extra five minutes though, trying to make them a little crunchy, but they were still quite chewy. I know it's not my oven, because it matches up pretty much exactly with most of the other recipes on food network and also on other websites. Maybe it was just me. But my husband and I liked these anyway

    Delicious cookies! Very tangy and flavorful. I used 1,1/2 c white flour, 2 c wheat flour and 1 c almond flour and they turned out great, next time I'll use more almond flour and less regular flour. I don't know how necessary it was to mix the lime zest in with the sugar, it just seemed like an extra step that could have been avoided, but they are delicious! If you want your cookies to remain a little chewy, make sure to take them out just before they begin to brown.

    Absolutely delicious! The flavor of these cookies is fantastic! (And some of the yummiest cookie dough, I might add...

    A few notes:

    This recipe does not make 3 dozen. If you make your cookie balls about the size of a walnut, you end up with at least 6 dozen.

    When you press down the cookies with a water glass, dip the bottom of the glass in your lime sugar to prevent the glass from sticking to the cookies.

    Make more lime sugar so you can set more aside. I think at least another half of a cup of lime sugar for dipping. I ran out and just used white sugar for a good portion of the cookies.

    Overall fabulous and highly recommended!!!

    These cookies came out golden and buttery. The taste was zesty-sweetness! Not your run of the mill cookies here. The pistachio flavor blended nicely into the zing of the lime.

    Directions were a bit hard to follow (as I do not currently have a food-processor. However over came the hinderance just fine, using my hands, and a good hand held mixer! :

    This recipe might have taken a lot longer to prepare than the 30 mins. the recipe suggested, but I also did a different variation for preparing the cookies.

    Overall, these Pistachio-Lime cookies are an enjoyment to nibble on. You can't find that flavor packed in a box.

    Cheers!
