These tangy cookies are a favorite of mine. Light and tangy. Great when served with Sherbet as a light, company pleasing dessert. A little green coloring may be added but don't get them too green ! They pack well and look great on a cookie tray. Something different and not heavy or too rich. Pretty to look at too ! Ingredients:
