Earl Grey Tea Cookies

You can use your favourite tea leaves, but I like to use Earl Grey. The tea leaves should be finely ground, so tea bags would be the easiest to use. I added the contents of 2 tea bags to my ‘Easiest Sweet Shortcrust Pastry’ that can be a fantastic cookie dough. Shortbread dough is also good. These cookies don’t have the strong fragrance any more, but my kitchen was filled with the lovely smell while baking. I enjoy these cookies with Earl Grey Tea. Ahhh… so good.
