Ingredients
2 3/4
cup
all purpose flour
2
Tbs
Earl Grey tea leaves
(approx 8 tea bags)
1/2
tsp
baking powder
1/4
tsp
kosher salt
1
cup
unsalted butter
at room temperature, s, 2 sticks
3/4
cup
granulated white sugar
1
large egg
2
tsp
grated orange zest
Instructions
Whisk together the flour, tea leaves, baking powder, and salt in a bowl, and set aside.
In a food processor, blitz the butter and sugar until smooth. Add the egg and orange zest and pulse to just combine.
Add the flour mixture and pulse to combine.
Transfer the mixture to a lightly floured surface and roll into two logs, about 2 inch in diameter.
Wrap the logs in plastic wrap, and chill for at least an hour.
Heat the oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper, OR use a baking stone.
Slice the cookies 1/8 inch thick and place on the cookie sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.
Bake 14 to 16 minutes - the edges should lightly brown around the edges only (don't overbake!)
Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
