Chai Tea Cookies


I love chai tea, so what could be better than adding it to cookies...well, not much, considering these were super delicious and super healthy...especially by a cookie standard!  (My dog even agreed that they were delicious...he might have stolen one!)  Any ways, these were baked on a night of deliciousness and craftiness (chai cookies, beer bread and button bracelets).

Chai Tea Cookies

2 3/4 C. Flour
1 t. Baking Soda
1/2 t. Baking Powder
1/2 t. Salt
3/4 C. Sugar
1/2 C. Butter
1/2 C. Applesauce
1 Egg
1/2 t. Vanilla extract
4 T. Chai Concentrate (I used the Tazo Chai tea concentrate that you can get at Starbucks seeing as I work there)
1/4 t. Ground Pepper

Preheat oven to 350 F.

In a large bowl combine all ingredients and stir until thoroughly mixed.

Drop about 1 1/2 T. of cookie batter on pre-greased cookie sheet about 1-2 inches apart.

Cook for 7-10 minutes or until cookies are lightly brown.

Remove from oven and place on cooling rack.  Enjoy!

P.S. Your cookie will come out slightly crunchier and most likely browner than mine because I used all applesauce instead of the applesauce/butter mixture that is recommended.  If you use all applesauce they will come out more like round pieces of bread (though still very delicious, but not as cookie like).
