These were reeeeally good! So lemony and light-tasting ... absolutely perfect to have with a cup of tea. I found the dough was very crumbly, and actually ended up adding another tsp of water to the dough ... I had trouble cutting it, but managed to form most of them into shapes resembling circles. Still quite elegant! Great recipe!

    I'm not going to put stars on this because I used green tea instead of Earl Grey tea because it was either using that or white tea or orange rooibas tea :-P I also substituted a bit of stevia instead of confectioners sugar. I thought they were unique but decent. My mom said she didn't think the tea did much for the cookies though. It just wouldn't be fair for me to give this stars because I didn't follow the recipe to a T. Thanks for posting though. I will try with Earl Grey when I get some

    These cookies are magnificent! Buttery, crunchy, and not too sweet. Plus the tea give them a distinct flavor. Our food processor is too small to make all the dough, so I used out stand mixer and thus had to make a few procedural changes to the recipe. First, I combined all the dry ingredients on a large bowl, Second, I creamed the butter on high, just long enough to loosen it up, then I added the vanilla. Third, I slowly added the dry mixture into mixer and mixed on low until combined. Came out great!
