- In a large bowl, beat the butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Stir in the flour mixture.
- Using your hands, form the dough into two logs about 1 inch in diameter.
- Wrap each log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for approximately 1 hour, or until firm enough to slice.
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Unwrap each log and cut into slices about 1/4 inch thick. Place on ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for approximately 8-10 minutes, or until cookies are firm but not browned.
- Cool for 1 minute on baking sheets, then remove and place on racks. Cool completely.
- To make filling, place butter in a small saucepan and heat over low heat until melted.
- Continue to heat, stirring occasionally, until butter just begins to brown.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Stir powdered sugar and lime juice into melted butter.
