Ingredients

  • teaspoons double-acting baking powder 
  • large eggs 
  • 2.8 cups flour all-purpose
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground allspice 
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon 
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground ginger 
  • tablespoon orange juice orange-flavored ( liqueur)
  • cup sugar 
  • tablespoon chai spice ( 3 tea bags)
  • tablespoon vegetable oil 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking sheet
  • oven
  • knife
  • wire rack
  • measuring cup

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 35
  2. Lightly spoon the flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife.
  3. Combine flour and next 6 ingredients (flour through allspice) in a large bowl.
  4. Combine the oil, liqueur, and eggs, and add to the flour mixture, stirring until well-blended (the dough will be dry and crumbly). Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 7 or 8 times. Divide the dough in half. Shape each portion into an 8-inch-long roll.
  5. Place rolls 6 inches apart on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; flatten each roll to 1-inch thickness.
  6. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
  7. Remove the rolls from baking sheet; cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack.
  8. Cut each roll diagonally into 15 (1/2-inch) slices.
  9. Place the slices, cut sides down, on baking sheet. Reduce the oven temperature to 325; bake 10 minutes. Turn cookies over; bake an additional 10 minutes (the cookies will be slightly soft in center but will harden as they cool).
  10. Remove from baking sheet; cool completely on wire rack.
