We are swinging right into the heart of Christmas cookie season, and one of the many many varieties that will be filling up the cookie jar in our house will be these sweet and spicy chai spice cookies. Just like chai tea, when you take that first bite it will taste just like a wonderful, familiar sugar cookie. But a few seconds later, you will get a teeny pop of heat - those are the mixture of spices that mixed together make up chai. And if you think chai tea is delicious, wait until you taste it in a cookie!
