Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
Stir in the salt, key lime zest, key lime juice, and vanilla extract until combined.
Gradually mix in the flour until dough forms and is not too sticky.
Roll tablespoon-sized portions of dough into balls and place 2 inches apart on baking sheet.
Flatten each ball lightly with your fingers or glass bottom.
Bake 12–15 minutes until edges are lightly golden. Cool on sheet 5 minutes before transferring to a rack.
