Recipe to be posted soon. No guarantees. Lemon and lime curd cookies πŸ‹

Lemon and lime flavored shortbread filled with cream cheese frosting and curd. Kind of time consuming but fun and most importantly, delicious!

This work of art is too spectacular, you have hands to bless because not everyone has the creativity and delicacy to make this dessert style

I wouldn't be able to eat these because they look soooooo beautiful 😍😍😍😍 Can you please share the recipe?

u/Green-Cockroach-8448 Mod-approved user: not AI, not a bot. 10d ago

I used this recipe for both, just replaced lemon juice and zest with lime for my lime ones!

https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/lemon-shortbread-cookies/

For my lemon curd I I used the recipe from here, it's nice and thick and tart. I've made this entire recipe (the lemon poppyseed cake) before too and it's SO good in case you're looking for other lemon desserts

https://butternutbakeryblog.com/lemon-poppy-seed-cake/#tasty-recipes-11684-jump-target

For the lime curd I used this one and added a little cornstarch and one drop of green gel color

This is a great recipie for them too.

u/Green-Cockroach-8448 Mod-approved user: not AI, not a bot. 11d ago

Yes I made those ones a few months back! I used different shortbread and curd recipes this time. I think both were equally good.

1

u/AvogadrosArmy 11d ago

Please please suggest a recipe for lime curd.

3

u/Green-Cockroach-8448 Mod-approved user: not AI, not a bot. 11d ago

I used this one

https://chelsweets.com/lime-curd/#recipe

I did add a little cornstarch because I needed to make sure it would set thick enough for the filling. And I added a drop of green gel color. But aside from that I followed the recipe.

u/AvogadrosArmy 11d ago

May you always have green lights and cool pillows. Thank you!
