• tiempo total: 1 hour 20 minutes

Ingredientes

1/2 cup (113 g) unsalted butter (room temperature)

1/2 cup (120 ml) vegetable oil

1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar (plus extra for sprinkling)

1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar

1 large egg (room temperature)

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teabag chai tea (cut the bag open and remove the crushed up leaves)

1 1/2 cups (180 g) powdered sugar (sifted)

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

2-3 tablespoons eggnog (or whole milk)

Instrucciones

Mix wet ingredients

In the bowl of a stand mixer (or using a hand mixer), beat butter on medium speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Mix in the vegetable oil, then the granulated sugar and powdered sugar. Add the egg and vanilla, then mix until incorporated. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as necessary.

Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients

In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and spices. Add to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined (dough will be soft).

Chill dough

Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. The longer the dough chills, the more the chai will infuse its flavor. I suggest chilling the dough overnight.

Preheat oven

When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Scoop dough

Scoop tablespoons of dough and place on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Press dough balls gently with the palm of your hand, then sprinkle the tops with sugar.

Bake cookies

Bake for 9 to 10 minutes or until the edges are turning golden and centers are soft. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Make the glaze. Whisk together powdered sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and 2 tablespoons eggnog (or milk). If the icing is too thick to spread, add more eggnog/milk.

Ice cookies

Spoon the icing onto cooled cookies. Use the back of the spoon to spread slightly, leaving the edges bare.
