Ingredients
- 2 1/2 Cups All Purpose Flour
- 2 Cups Granulated Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 1/2 Cups Salted Butter melted and slightly cooled
- 4 Large Eggs
- 1/2 Cup Fresh Lime Juice
- 2 Tablespoons Lime Zest
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
For The Glaze:
- 2 Cups Powdered Sugar
- 4-6 Tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
- 2 teaspoons Lime Zest
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
- Mix the butter into the flour mixture until fully combined and thick.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla.
- Stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the edges are set, and a toothpick comes out mostly clean when inserted in the center.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan.
- Sift the powdered sugar into a medium bowl, then whisk in the remaining glaze ingredients until smooth. (If the glaze is too thick, you can add a tablespoon of milk or water at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.)
- Spread evenly over the cooled brownies and let it set until it forms a "crust" on the top and the icing is no longer tacky. (This will take around 30 minutes.)
- Zest more lime onto the brownies if desired before slicing and serving.
