Earl Grey Tea Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
• 1 tbsp Earl Grey tea
• ¹⁄₄ tsp Sea Salt
• ¹⁄₄ tsp vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup unsalted butter, softened
• ¹⁄₄ cup icing sugar
• 1 tbsp finely grated orange or lemon zest, optional
• 1 tsp water

Preparation

1. In a food processor, pulse all dry ingredients until tea is pulverized.
2. Add vanilla extract, butter, sugar, orange or lemon zest, if using, and water. Pulse until a dough starts to come together. Remove the dough onto a piece of wax or parchment paper and form into a log. Wrap the paper around and roll the log smooth. Chill for at least 30 minutes or freeze for later use.
3. Preheat oven to 375° F (190° C).
4. Slice the log into approximately 1⁄2’’ discs. Space 1’’ apart on a Sheet Pan lined with a Sheet Pan Liner. Bake until edges are slightly golden, 12–14 minutes.
