For the best flavor, use fresh Key lime juice and zest. Bottled lime juice will not have the same vibrant taste. If the dough is too sticky to roll, chill it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before shaping. Do not overbake the cookies; they should be soft in the center and lightly golden around the edges. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
