Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 tablespoons very cold unsalted butter, diced
  • ½ cup very cold heavy cream
  • 2 large eggs (1 egg + 1 yolk reserved)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon chai spice blend

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream, one egg, and one yolk; chill in the freezer.
  3. In a food processor, pulse flour, sugar, baking powder, chai spices, and salt. Add cold butter cubes and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
