Earl Grey Tea Cookies
makes 2 dozen

1 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon Earl Grey tea leaves*
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon water
1/2 cup unsalted butter

Preheat oven to 375°F. Pulse together all the dry ingredients in a food processor until the tea leaves are pulverized.

Add vanilla, water, and butter. Pulse together until a dough is formed. Form the dough into a log onto a piece of wax or parchment paper. Wrap the paper around and roll the log smooth. Freeze now, or chill for at least 30 minutes.

When chilled, slice the log into 1/3 inch thick pieces. Place on baking sheets and bake until the edges are just brown, about 12 minutes. Let cool on sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks.

*One would think that expensive loose leaf tea would be best in this recipe. But I've actually gotten the best flavor with tea from cheap bags that I've ripped open. I think the leaves are more fine and flaky.

[That note was from the blog I saved the recipe from, not me. But cheap tea bags worked pretty well. I think it was around 2 tea bags = 1 TB.]

My sister is obsessed with tea. I bet she would love those.

They were tasty and buttery! But fyi, they definitely are caffeinated cookies! If one is planning to eat Earl Grey cookies with a cup of Earl Grey tea, I would consider making them with decaf tea.

Thanks (for the advice and remembering I don't consume caffeine).
