Almond Chai Tea Butter Cookies

I love baking with spiced teas. They make desserts so fragrant and delicious! I find that butter cookies best showcase their aromas and delicate flavors. Question is, then, do you still need to have tea with these cookies? What a great dilemma to have! Order some today.

SPICY BITS: Chinese Five Spice

What is it?: A dry seasoning for chicken, beef, duck, pork ribs and goose. Chinese Five Spice is made up of several spices, including equal parts Szechwan pepper, cinnamon, cloves, fennel seed, and star anise fruit. The flavor is sweet and peppery with a fruity aroma.
Tip: Use it in stews and breading for fried foods to add an Asian flair.
