I think these are our new favorite cookie. It was cut from one of my old Taste of Home Magazines and an adorable woman who had celebrated her 50th Wedding Anniversary in 1996, sent in this recipe saying she had made these cookies for her husband hundreds of times over the years and was now sharing it with the magazine. I was looking for a lemon bread recipe I wanted to feature on the blog when I happened upon this little gem. I found this recipe in a recipe box filled with recipes from my previous life as a consumer of all things GMO and chemical shiz storm type frankenfoods. Sometimes the brilliant ideas that pop into my head are…well, BRILLIANT. Why not make them a sliceable icebox cookie instead? Man. I took this recipe a step further and turned it into an ice box cookie to reduce the chore of having to scoop out small balls of dough that had been chilled over night. I made a few changes, changed out some of the not-so-good ingredients (like vegetable shortening) for butter, and replaced some of the brown sugar with coconut sugar. When I saw this recipe, I knew I had to try it. I think my top three dessert choices always have either lemon, coconut or a berry, such as raspberries or strawberries. It’s like a coconutty extravaganza y’all! ![]() ![]() Luckily for us all, no brightly colored, manicured nails or unassuming serial killers made their way into this recipe. If you’re a fan of Dexter, you immediately thought about the Icebox Killer when you read the title of this recipe. ![]()
