Small Batch Chai Spice Cookies

I’ve been working on a small batch Chai Spice cookie recipe for a while now. I love Chai Spice cookies so much I could easily make and eat a full batch but it seems more prudent to have a recipe that makes less cookies for me to eat all at once. You know so that I don’t eat a zillion chai spiced butter cookies. IT would be quite the feat but not one I need to word towards. So here you go, a new smaller batch size with same great taste.

Chai Spice Cookie Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter softened
1/8 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 tespoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon allspice
pinch of salt
1/3 cup powder sugar

Preheat oven to 350°F. Using an electric mixer cream butter together with granulated sugar and vanilla until well blended. In small bowl mix flour, spices and salt. Add flour mixture to butter mixture and stir until combined. Roll dough into teaspoon size balls and place on baking sheet about an inch apart. I recommend using an actual measuring spoon for this to get perfect bite sized cookies. Bake for 16-20 minutes and cookies are lightly golden. Remove cookies from oven and let sit on the cookie sheet for about 5 minutes then lightly roll warm cookies in powdered sugar and set on wire rack to finish cooling.
