Chai Butter Cookies recipe

3 servings

1 cup unsalted butter

1 1/3 cups white sugar

2 eggs

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

2 teaspoons salt

1/2 cup white sugar for decoration

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, 1 1/3 cups sugar, and chai tea mix until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.

Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; blend into the creamed mixture until all of the dry has been absorbed.

Cover the dough, and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Roll the cookie dough into walnut sized balls, and roll the balls in sugar.

Place the cookies onto greased cookie sheets about 3 inches apart, and flatten slightly using the tines of a fork.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, just until the edges begin to brown.

Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
