Instructions
Make the Cookie Dough
- Beat the butter until creamy, then add the oil.
- Next, add the sugar, powdered sugar, egg, and vanilla and continue to beat until smooth.
- Add the flour, baking soda, salt, and contents of the tea bag and pour it into the bowl.
- Chill the soft dough for about 1 hour or even overnight.
Bake the Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Form cookie dough balls into approximately 2” balls. Add to greased cookie sheet. About 8 cookies should fit on each tray.
- Press slightly to even out the cookies.
- Bake for approximately 9 or 10 minutes. The cookies should be slightly golden, but the edges should not brown. They may look slightly undercooked.
- Cool completely before decorating.
Make the Icing
- While cookies cool, prepare the icing. Combine powdered sugar, milk, and bergamot syrup. Stir until smooth. Icing should be viscous, but not thin enough to run off the cookies.
- Cover the cookies with icing and zest some orange on top while the icing is still wet, if desired.

Notes
- Be sure to let the icing set completely before placing in a tin or on top of each other.
