- Take out all ingredients in advance so they are at room temperature and preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C).
- Line the baking pan you will use with paper.
- Mix the sugar and lard well together.
- Add the flour little by little until you obtain a soft dough that does not stick to your fingers.
- Add the green lime zest and the vanilla, and mix everything well.
- Roll out the dough with a rolling pin and shape it into torticas.
- Place them on the lined pan and bake at 350 °F (180 °C) for 15 minutes: they must be cooked, but not browned.
- Remove them from the oven and dust them with powdered sugar.
