Not a fan of coffee? That’s okay, because these cookies are perfect to pair with a chai tea latte. They’re soft, sweet and full of fall spices that will warm you up as the weather gets colder. These cookies are perfect for sharing with your friends and family after Thanksgiving dinner, or to add to your Christmas cookie tins.

 

INGREDIENTS
5 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon chai spice mix*
1 ¼ cups unsalted butter, browned
4 egg yolks, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ¼ cups light brown sugar
3 tablespoons chai spice mix
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt

 

INSTRUCTIONS
Add granulated sugar and chai spice mix into a bowl and combine. In a small pot, brown butter for 5-8 minutes, stirring frequently. When the butter is foamy, dark brown and gives off a nutty, sweet scent, remove it from the heat and transfer to a small bowl. Let browned butter cool then preheat your oven to 350º F. Combine flour, chai spice mixture, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Then whip the cooled brown butter until fluffy. Add brown sugar, egg yolks and vanilla and cream together. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Scoop the dough into balls about an inch thick, roll them in the spiced sugar, then bake 8 cookies at a time for 10-12 minutes on parchment lined baking sheets.

*To make your own chai spice: combine 2 teaspoons ground cardamom, 2 teaspoons ground allspice, 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg, 4 teaspoons cinnamon, 2 teaspoons ground cloves and 3 teaspoons ground ginger.
