Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter room temperature, unsalted
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 egg large
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 pinches kosher salt
  • chai tea leaves crushed leaves from 1 tea bag
  • 1 cup powdered sugar for icing
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg for icing
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon for icing
  • 1-3 tablespoons eggnog for icing

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter until creamy. Add the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar, beating until well combined.
  2. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and crushed chai tea leaves. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
  5. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Form the dough into small balls and place on a lined baking sheet. Flatten slightly, then bake for 10-13 minutes until lightly golden. Allow to cool on the sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. Mix 1 cup powdered sugar with nutmeg, cinnamon, and enough eggnog to achieve a spreadable consistency. Drizzle over cooled cookies.
