These cookies are like chai spiced Mexican Wedding Cakes. I love the flavor and hope you will, too. A friend gave me this one and tells me it was from a Christmas issue of a magazine she gets.

These tea cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might have overbaked them. But the flavor was still good.
