40 m 24Ingredients
- 2½ tbsp. granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp. Chocolate Chip, separated
- 1 c. and 2 tbsp. flour
- ½ c. room temperature butter
- powdered sugar (optional)
- chopped pecans (optional)
- mini chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 325℉.
Steep 1 tbsp. of Chocolate Chip tea in ¼ c. water. Grind the other tbsp. of Chocolate Chip to desired fineness.
Lightly cream butter in mixing bowl. Add granulated sugar and 1 tbsp. of steeped Chocolate Chip and beat until combined.
Slowly beat in flour and ground tea. If dough becomes too dry for beaters, mix the remaining flour in with a spoon.
Optionally, you can add in pecans or mini chocolate chips (about ½ c. total between both ingredients).
Shape dough into small balls (~1 inch) or push dough into shaped silicone molds of choice. If using molds, make sure to chill the dough ~5-10 minutes before de-molding.
Place cookies on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned.
Cool cookies on a wire rack. Optionally, lightly dredge the cookies in powdered sugar when cool.
