Enjoy the soft and delicious taste of these sugar cookies topped with fresh strawberry icing. The combination of tender cookies and the fruity sweetness of strawberries results in a delicious treat.

Ingredients: 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 large egg. 2 tablespoons sour cream. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. For Fresh Strawberry Icing:. 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and pureed. 2 cups powdered sugar. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.

Instructions: Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl with a whisk. Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar in another bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the egg, sour cream, and vanilla extract and mix them in well. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients one at a time until a soft dough forms. Make two discs out of the dough, wrap each one in plastic wrap, and put them in the fridge for at least one to two hours. Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on baking sheets. On a floured surface, roll out one piece of dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Cut out the shapes you want with cookie cutters and place them on the baking sheets that have been prepared. After the oven is hot, bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden. For a few minutes, let the cookies cool on the baking sheets. Then, move them to wire racks to cool completely. Pure the strawberries, add the powdered sugar, and mix until smooth. This makes the fresh strawberry icing. Put some fresh strawberry icing on top of each cookie once they are completely cool. You can either spread it out or drizzle it on. Let the icing harden on the cookies before you serve them or put them away.

These soft sugar cookies with a zesty fresh key lime frosting are ideal for any lime fan! The cookies are tender and buttery, and the frosting adds a tangy citrus flavor to offset the sweetness. These cookies are sure to be a hit whether you serve them at a party or enjoy them with a glass of milk.

Ingredients: 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon baking soda. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. 1 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1 1/2 cups white granulated sugar. 1 egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. 3 tablespoons buttermilk. Zest of 2 limes. Freshly squeezed juice of 2 limes. Green food coloring optional. 3 cups powdered sugar.

Instructions: Before you start cooking, heat the oven to 375F 190C. Whisk flour, baking soda, and baking powder together in a medium-sized bowl. Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar in a separate large bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the buttermilk, egg, vanilla extract, almond extract, lime zest, and lime juice and beat until everything is well mixed. If you want the cookies to be a light green color, you can add a few drops of green food coloring to the wet ingredients. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until they are just combined. Put the cookie dough in the fridge for at least 30 minutes with the lid on. Drop dough into round balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon. For 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden. Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way. Whisk the powdered sugar and just enough lime juice together in a bowl until you get a thick frosting that you can still spread. Put some fresh key lime frosting on top of each cookie after it has cooled all the way down. If you want, you can add more lime zest or slices of lime as a garnish. Enjoy these soft sugar cookies that taste great and have a cool key lime twist.
