Although it’s already back to school time for many of us with kiddos, it’s important to remind ourselves that summer isn’t over yet and refreshing flavors are definitely still in season. While the warmer weather persists, it doesn’t mean you have to completely neglect your oven and we encourage you to fire that bad boy up to recreate this summery recipe from Oh Sweet Basil.

These key lime pie cookies satisfy your cravings for zesty citrus creamy pie filling and buttery graham cracker crust but in a cookie form.”

How to Store Key Lime Pie Cookies
Key lime pie cookies should be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container. They will keep for up to 4 days but the cookie will get softer the longer they sit.
These cookies freeze extremely well. Place the cookies on a baking sheet and place them in the freezer for an hour or two until they are frozen solid. Then place them in a freezer safe container. They will keep for up to 3 months.
