Lime White Chocolate Cookies

My favorite!
Ingredients:
Cookie
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 Egg
3 tablespoons limeade concentrate, thawed
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (3-ounce) bars white chocolate, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
(I use white chocolate chips)

Glaze

1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
4 to 5 tablespoons limeade concentrate, thawed
2 tablespoons freshly grated lime zest

Directions

Heat oven to 350°F. Combine butter, sugar, brown sugar, egg and limeade concentrate in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Reduce speed to low; add flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt. Beat until well mixed. Stir in white chocolate.

Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls, 2 inches apart, onto greased cookie sheets. Bake for 9 to 12 minutes or until light golden brown. (Don't over cook, I usually take them out at 9 minutes) Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets. Cool completely.

Combine powdered sugar and enough limeade concentrate for desired glazing consistency. Top each cookie with 1/2 teaspoon glaze; sprinkle with lime zest.

Makes about 3 dozen. ( I always double or triple this recipe since it is my FAVORITE!)
