RECIPE: A Different Virgin Island Cookie

23 years ago

Another from my friend, Angela.

LIME RUM GINGERSNAP COOKIES

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

1 egg

1 TBL rum, light or dark

2 TBL Rose's Lime juice

1 tsp grated lime zest

1 1/2 TBL freshly grated ginger

3 1/4 cups + 2 TBL flour

2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp ground ginger

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground cloves

In a large bowl beat the butter with the sugar, adding the egg, beat until fluffy. Stir in rum, lime juice, zest & ginger. Sift together dry ingredients & add to bowl until well combined.

Cut dough in 1/2 & form into a roll. Wrap with wax paper & chill overnight until firm.

Preheat oven to 350°. Lightly grease baking sheets or use non-stick ones.

Slice rolls thinly, slightly less than 1/4". Place on cookie shets leaving at least 1 1/2" space between the cookies. Sprinkle sugar over the tops of the cookies & bake until golden, about 12-15 minutes. Remove cookies from oven & allow to cool on sheet for 8-10 minutes. Cookies will have hardened slightly & be easier to remove with a metal spatula. Cool completely on a wire rack.~~
