- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup sugar (+ more for topping)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cup flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 chai tea bag (contents only)
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a cookie sheet or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup later.
Next, in a large mixing bowl, beat the room-temperature butter until smooth. Gradually add in the vegetable oil (or your chosen oil substitute like avocado or olive oil) until fully incorporated.
Stir in the sugar, powdered sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Slowly mix in the flour, baking soda, salt, and the contents of one chai tea bag. The dough will be soft, so chill it in the refrigerator for about 1 hour to make it easier to handle.
Once the dough is chilled, scoop out about 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie and drop it onto your prepared cookie sheet, making sure to space them about 2 inches apart.
Press each dough ball lightly with a sugar-coated glass or utensil to flatten them evenly. Bake the cookies for about 9 minutes, or until they are lightly golden around the edges.
While the cookies are cooling, whip up a simple icing by combining powdered sugar with a small amount of milk or cream. Drizzle the icing over the cookies once they've cooled completely.
