But the shortbread is fabulous!

I should be resting in preparation for my friends coming over for afternoon tea tomorrow but because I am a crazy person with no sense of what's good for me I am baking instead. I mean, I said it wouldn't be anything fancy so we're having platters of vegetables with hummus and fruit with chocolate - but I wanted to make a cake as well. And then there were the extra baked goods Christmas gifts ...

So the Honey and Vanilla Cake is the oven, the Chocolate Thumbprints are made (rolled in this Snowflake Sprinkles mix!) and the Chai-Infused Shortbread dough is in the fridge.

I made this shortbread a couple of months ago and it is fabulous (although Mum doesn't like it much, it just doesn't appeal to her. Well, more for me!) I have a jar of Choc Chip Chai from T2 in the cupboard and I don't like it as a drink. But I usually love those spices in baking so I went looking for a recipe that used chai (not just 'chai spices'.)

Chai-Infused Shortbread

Tastes like Christmas to me.
