Step by Step Method
Step 1
Sift flour and cocoa together.
Step 2
Beat butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. Stir in flour mixture.
Step 3
Shape into 2 logs about 1" in diameter. Wrap well and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Step 4
Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit.
Step 5
Unwrap dough and cut into slices about 1/4" thick.
Step 6
Bake on ungreased cookie sheets for 8-10 minutes, or until firm but not browned. Let cool 1 minute on sheets, then remove to wire racks to finish cooling.
Step 7
To make filling, melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Continue cooking until butter just begins to turn brown. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Stir in powdered sugar and lime juice.

Spread half the cookies with the filling. Place the remaining cookies on top and press down gently.
