Earl Grey Sablés
A classic French cookie that's perfect with a cup of tea or coffee or a glass of wine. This shortbread cookie is flavored with some powdered earl grey tea and rolled in some turbinado sugar for an extra crunch.

Servings: 15 cookies
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 teaspoon earl grey tea
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- turbinado sugar optional
Instructions
- Preheated the oven of 350 degrees F.
- Grind the earl grey tea into powder. (NOTE 1)
- Prepare the dough by mixing the butter (room temperature, not soft or melted), flour, sugar, salt, tea.
- When the dough is mixed, form a log with saran wrap and place this in the fridge for a few hours. (NOTE 2)
- Sprinkle some turbinado sugar (optional) on your counter and roll the log through the sugar, pressing down slightly. Cut cookies of about 1/4 inch thickness and place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the cookies for about 15 minutes until they are golden brown at the edges (center will be paler). Allow them to cool on a wire rack.
Notes
- If you don’t have a mortar and pestle, place the tea between parchment paper and use your rolling pin until the tea turns to powder. Or use the flat side of a cheese mallet.
- I made a log of about 7 inches long for about 15 cookies. Shorter logs will obviously generate bigger cookies, but lower count.
