Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Swap with gluten-free blend if needed.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Can use brown sugar for a deeper flavor.
  • 1 cup Butter Use unsalted for better control over sweetness.
  • 2 Eggs Can substitute with a flax egg for vegan option.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Almond extract works beautifully for a twist.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder Baking soda can be used as an alternative (use half the amount).
For the Chocolate Dip

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla, blending until smooth. Gradually incorporate flour and baking powder. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the dough to about ¼-inch thickness. Cut out tea bag shapes and place on a baking sheet.
  3. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges turn golden brown. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks.
  4. Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Dip cooled cookies halfway into the melted chocolate and let excess drip back. Place back on wire racks to set.
  5. Once chocolate is set, tie baker’s twine around the top of each cookie and secure a tag for presentation.
